About us:

We are a public service for the people of New Mexico, a resource for collaboration and experimentation within the local news ecosystem, and a learning vehicle for students at the University of New Mexico. While some of our news is provided by our partners, most of our news is the original work of students who explore issue-oriented beats as an extension of their multimedia journalism degree preparation.

Our standards:

The News Port aims to inform readers through honest, ethical and thorough reporting, writing and photography.

Our independence:

We are first and foremost a news service. That requires editorial independence to seek the truth and report it fully. While we are an extension of the University of New Mexico, we are not an extension of any public relations apparatus.  

Corrections policy:

The New Mexico News Port strives to be accurate and fair in all of our reporting. Please notify the editor of any reporting that does not meet those standards by emailing nmnewsport@gmail.com. The News Port aims to correct factual errors in a timely manner.
