AI Use Policy

AZAR NEWS may use AI-assisted tools to support editorial workflow, but human editors remain responsible for judgment, source review, verification and publication decisions. The purpose of AI use is workflow support, not a substitute for reporting standards.

How AI may be used

AI-assisted systems can support source monitoring, note organization, translation assistance, draft support, headline testing, language cleanup and internal categorization where a reporting basis already exists.

How AI is not used

AZAR NEWS does not use AI tools to fabricate sources, invent quotes, create non-existent people, publish unverified factual claims or present synthetic depictions of real events as documentary evidence.

Human editorial control

Every publishable claim remains the responsibility of the newsroom. Editors review source material and decide whether a piece is ready to publish, needs more verification or should not run at all.
