Our standards
How we gather, check and correct the news. The short version: every number names its source.
What we cover
Kootenai County, Idaho: Coeur d’Alene, Post Falls, Hayden, Hayden Lake, Rathdrum, Dalton Gardens and Athol. County news comes first.
Where the facts come from
Facts come straight from their sources: public records, public meetings, the agencies and people involved, and reports we name.
Every story lists its sources at the bottom. Every number names its source.
Who checks a story
Every story is read and approved by the producer, Anthony V. Esposito, before it is published. Nothing publishes itself.
Asking for the other side
When a story raises a question about a public agency or a person, we ask for their side before we publish. If they do not answer, the story says so.
Corrections
When we get something wrong, we fix it and say what changed and when. Every fix is listed on the Corrections page.
To report a mistake, write to ae@aexperiences.studio.
Ads and the news
Ads are marked “Advertisement.” Advertisers do not see stories before they run and do not get a say in them.
Kcounty.Media is owned by Accelerated Experiences LLC, which also makes the apps under Tools. When our own company’s products appear here, they are shown as ads or as tools, not as news.
The Events calendar
A person reviews every event that is sent in before it goes on the calendar.
