Backfire News is written by people. Every story starts with a human reporter or writer who does the research and writes the first draft.
Where we use AI
We use AI tools only to help edit text that a human has already written, for example to check grammar, tighten wording or suggest clearer phrasing. A human editor reviews and approves every change before publication.
Where we do not use AI
- We do not publish AI-generated articles.
- We do not use AI to invent quotes, sources, statistics or facts.
- We do not use AI to rewrite other publishers’ reporting.
- We do not present AI-generated images as photographs of real events. Any AI-generated or AI-altered image is labeled.
Accountability
A named editor is responsible for everything we publish, whether or not AI tools were used in editing. If you find an error, tell us at contact@backfirenews.com. See our Corrections Policy and Editorial Standards.
