Partnerships
Clever News Collective considers collaborations that fit its interest in careful reading, media understanding and public communication. Partnerships should be useful to readers and easy to distinguish from editorial coverage.
Ideas we consider
We welcome proposals for clearly defined educational collaborations, reader resources, discussion events or other projects that complement the publication's subject. A proposal should explain its purpose, intended audience, proposed roles and any commercial or organisational interests involved.
Partner placements
The site may accept clearly labelled partner placements, including a dedicated placement area for relevant organisations or resources. Placement does not imply editorial endorsement, and partners cannot buy a particular editorial conclusion or control independent coverage.
Clear labelling
Paid, commissioned or jointly produced material is identified so readers can see that a partner is involved. We do not present partner copy as independent editorial work. Send a proposal through the Contact page and select the partnership option.
Careful reading makes room for better questions.
A headline can orient us, but it cannot hold every qualification. We look beyond the first impression without assuming that one reading settles the matter.
