Mississippi Today was founded in 2014 as an independent nonpartisan digital news service. It aggressively covers state and local government affairs and community issues including education, health, economic development, poverty and race as well as Mississippi's social culture. It adheres to the Society of Professional Journalists’ Code of Ethics and the Policy on Editorial Independence for Institute for Nonprofit News (INN) Member Organizations, subscribing to INN's standards of editorial independence. The publication retains full authority over editorial content to protect the best journalistic and business interests of the organization and maintains a firewall between news coverage decisions and sources of all revenue. It accepts gifts, grants and sponsorships from individuals and organizations for the general support of its activities, but its news judgments are made independently and not on the basis of donor support. It also may consider donations to support the coverage of particular topics, but maintains editorial control of the coverage. It cedes no right of review or influence of editorial content. - Source: Wikipedia
