About Boston Uncut

Boston Uncut is an independent news publication covering Boston, Cambridge and Massachusetts, with every fact attributed to a source.

Boston and Cambridge are the publication's primary focus and account for most of its coverage. Coverage of Massachusetts follows, then national and international news.

Coverage

About 70% of Boston Uncut's stories are original reporting based on public records, including city 311 data, police incident reports, building permits, court filings, budgets and meeting minutes. The publication focuses on stories not reported elsewhere and on new angles on stories covered by other outlets. The remaining stories are brief summaries of major news reported by other outlets, which are credited and linked.

The Music section publishes feature articles on Boston-based artists, covering their backgrounds, recordings and current work.

Standards

• Sourcing. Every story lists its sources with links to the original material.
• Transparency. Each original story includes a "How we reported this" note describing the records used and how figures were calculated.
• Allegations. Accusations are identified as allegations unless a court or official finding has resolved them.
• Quotations. Quotes are taken only from public records or from the credited news organization.
• Photography. Photos are licensed images of real places and are credited on every page. Boston Uncut does not use AI-generated images as news photographs.
