Each month, TEGNA reaches nearly 60 million adults across our digital platforms, and our stations have more than 40 million social media followers and subscribers. For streaming viewers, each TEGNA station has its own YouTube channel, as well as free Roku and Amazon Fire TV apps which offer live and on-demand news, weather and sports. TEGNA video is viewed more than 150 million times per month on these platforms.
We believe that in addition to seeking the truth, journalists must also stop the spread of misinformation and disinformation that has become so pervasive in our national discourse, especially on social media. That’s why we launched VERIFY to help viewers and users distinguish between true and false information.
TEGNA’s Principles of Ethical Journalism spell out our guiding principles of truth, independence, public interest, fair play and integrity. All employees who gather, report, produce and distribute news and information on any platform review our code of conduct annually and attend annual training sessions on ethical journalism covering ethics, social media, conflicts of interest and fairness issues.
