Editorial standards

What you can expect from every story we publish.

Accuracy and sourcing

  • Every news story lists its sources with links. We prefer primary sources such as regulatory filings, Federal Register notices, exchange notices and on-the-record statements.
  • When we rely on another outlet’s reporting we name and link to it.
  • We do not publish figures or quotes we cannot attribute.
  • We keep reporting (what happened) separate from analysis. “Why it matters” boxes are clearly labelled analysis.

Use of AI

The Midpoint uses AI tools to help with research, drafting, summarising source material, producing graphics and publishing. Our rules:

  • A human editor reviews every article before or shortly after publication and is responsible for it.
  • Every factual claim must be traceable to a cited source. AI output is never treated as a source.
  • AI is not used to invent quotes, people, images of real people or data.
  • Hero images are abstract, code-generated illustrations unless otherwise credited.

Fact-checking

Before publication we check names, titles, dates, figures and quotes against the cited sources. Stories on regulation and litigation are checked against the primary document where one is available.

Corrections

If we get something wrong we fix it quickly and say so. Material corrections are noted at the foot of the article with the date of the change. Email corrections to corrections@themidpointnews.com.

  • Sponsored content is always labelled Sponsored · Partner content at the top of the page, on every card and in our RSS feed.
  • Each sponsored article carries a disclosure naming the partner who paid for or provided it.
  • Sponsored content is not written or edited by The Midpoint newsroom and never appears in news sections. It lives in Partner Content.
  • Partners have no influence over our news coverage, and advertisers cannot review or approve news stories.
  • Links in sponsored content are marked rel="sponsored".
  • Sponsored placements are free for launch partners and become paid from 2027.

Independence and conflicts

Contributors disclose relevant financial interests and relationships. If a story involves a firm with which the editor has a relationship, we say so in the article.
