Partnerships
Clever News Journal considers collaborations that fit our interest in careful reading and clear explanation. We keep partner material distinct from independent editorial work.
Possible collaborations
We consider clearly scoped projects such as reader resources, educational materials, event-related explainers and relevant partner placements across the site. A proposal should explain its purpose, intended audience, proposed format and any organisation or product involved, without assuming editorial endorsement.
Labelling and editorial boundaries
Paid or partner-supported material and partner placements are labelled clearly wherever they appear. Labels are used so readers can recognise the relationship, not to blur it with independent editorial coverage. Partners cannot buy a favourable conclusion, dictate our editorial positions or require coverage presented as independent.
How to propose an idea
Send a concise outline through the Contact page and choose the partnership option. Include the proposed placement or collaboration, its intended audience and the nature of the relationship. We review proposals for relevance and clarity; sending one does not guarantee acceptance.
Curiosity before certainty
News deserves attention, and attention deserves a pause. We look for the wording, evidence and missing context that help readers think for themselves.
