Providing Georgians with the information they need to participate fully in democracy is our highest goal. AJC reporters strive for fairness and accuracy. They do not support political parties and are not allowed to endorse, contribute to or campaign for candidates or political causes.

Reporters and editors are members of the communities they live in and are encouraged to vote, but they work to be aware of their own views and preferences and carry out their jobs in an independent, non-partisan way.

As we scrutinize public officials and issues, we hold each other accountable for doing so from a position of independence. We work hard to be evenhanded and fair, and we invite you to let us know how we’re doing.
