Ethics, Ownership & Funding

Editorial standards

Kingfish reports from the public record. We default to open: source documents, methodology, and finances are public by default.

Sourcing & verification

Claims are labeled by how well they are supported — documented, reported, alleged, or disputed. Documented claims are backed by a public record you can open and read yourself.

Corrections

We correct the record promptly and transparently. Corrections are noted on the affected story. To report an error, email [email protected].

Ownership & funding

The Kingfish Project is an independent investigative outlet serving central Louisiana, currently funded entirely by its founder. Where our money comes from, the support we will and won’t accept, and how we disclose it are set out in our Funding & Transparency Policy.
