Citizen Journalism submissions for publishing in EE Publishers magazines, email newsletters and website are subject to the Press Code and the same well established Editorial Policy (editorial oversight, controls and review) as any other content published by EE Publishers. EE Publishers’ editors reserve the right to follow-up, investigate, verify, submit to affected persons for comment, response and right of reply, edit and shorten any submission. A decision not to publish a Citizen Journalism submission may be because the editor considers it inappropriate to the target audience, poorly written, dishonest, deliberately or maliciously misleading, with an improper hidden agenda, or because the editor considers that EE Publishers is being used for improper purposes. We look forward to the participation of aspiring EE Publishers Citizen Journalists, and welcome your feedback on this initiative!
