Reporting and editorial decisions

How our newsroom works
How does TWOSU News choose stories?

We prioritize stories with public-interest value, documented facts, meaningful trucking or transportation impact, strong visual evidence or a clear connection to safety, accountability and the driver community. Publication is always an editorial decision.

How does TWOSU News verify information?

Verification depends on the story and may include reviewing original video, metadata, public records, court filings, police or agency statements, witness accounts, company responses and direct reporting. Developing stories may be updated when credible new information becomes available.

Read our Newsroom Standards & Ethics for more detail.

Does TWOSU News publish opinion or satire?

Yes, when appropriate. Commentary, analysis, humor and satire are distinct from straight-news reporting and may be labeled or presented with context so readers can understand the nature of the material.

Can a person or company respond to a story?

Yes. A person, company or agency discussed in reporting may contact the News Desk with a statement, supporting records or a specific factual concern. TWOSU News decides whether and how a response is incorporated based on relevance, verification and editorial standards.

How do I request a correction?

Use the Request an Edit form. Identify the story, the exact statement you dispute, the correction you believe is necessary and any documentation supporting your request.

A correction request does not guarantee removal. TWOSU News may correct, clarify, update or add an editor’s note when supported by the available evidence.

Videos, tips and submissions

Sending material to the newsroom
How do I submit a video or news tip?

Use the official Submit a Video page. Include the date, location, what happened, who recorded the footage, whether it has been posted elsewhere and reliable contact information.

What information should accompany a submission?
  • the approximate date and time;
  • the city, highway or location;
  • a factual description of what occurred;
  • who recorded or owns the material;
  • known restrictions or prior licensing;
  • your preferred contact information.

More detail helps the News Desk verify the material and make a timely decision.

Can I submit information confidentially?

You may request confidentiality, and TWOSU News will consider the circumstances and explain what protections may be practical. Do not assume complete anonymity until you have discussed the matter directly with the News Desk. Digital communications can create records outside TWOSU News’s control.

Does submitting something guarantee publication?

No. TWOSU News may decline, delay, verify, edit, shorten, contextualize or refrain from publishing any submission for editorial, legal, safety or technical reasons.

Can I submit a full written story?

Yes. Use the Be the Press page for firsthand reporting or a developed story proposal. Submission does not guarantee publication, and accepted material may be edited for accuracy, clarity, length and style.

Copyright, licensing and payment

Ownership and permitted use
Do I keep my copyright when I submit material?

Yes, if you legally own the copyright. Submission does not automatically transfer ownership to TWOSU News. Unless a separate agreement says otherwise, you grant TWOSU News the license described in the applicable submission terms so the material can be reviewed, edited, published and distributed.

Will I be paid for submitted content?

Not automatically. Standard submissions are not guaranteed compensation. Payment or revenue sharing applies only when TWOSU News expressly agrees to it through a separate written agreement or an applicable contributor program.

Can I withdraw a submission after sending it?

You may contact the News Desk with a withdrawal request. TWOSU News will review it in good faith but cannot guarantee removal of material already published, distributed, archived, incorporated into reporting or delivered through third-party platforms.

Can I republish a TWOSU News story or video?

You may share a link and may quote limited portions where permitted by law with appropriate attribution. Republishing a complete story, photograph, graphic or video generally requires permission unless another lawful basis applies. Visit License Our Content for commercial or republication requests.

How does TWOSU News handle copyright complaints?

Copyright owners or authorized representatives should use the procedures on the DMCA & Counter Notification page. Include the required identification, location, contact and good-faith statements so the claim can be evaluated.

Does third-party material belong to TWOSU News?

No. Third-party material remains subject to the rights of its respective owner. It may appear through permission, license, fair use, public-domain status or another lawful basis.

No. Advertising and sponsorship relationships do not give a business control over independent editorial decisions. Paid or sponsored material may be labeled to distinguish it from newsroom reporting.
