These standards help ensure our coverage remains factual, accessible, and nonpartisan.
⚖️ Content Attribution & Video Use Policy
About Our Video Content
Evanston WY Politics produces original coverage and summaries of local civic meetings and community events.
From time to time, we also include short video excerpts or highlights from publicly available government sources — such as recordings from city, county, state, or federal agencies, and national public feeds (including C-SPAN and official legislative channels).
These clips are used solely for informational and educational purposes, to help highlight specific moments or topics discussed by public officials — for example, remarks from a senator, representative, or local department leader during an official meeting.
All such materials remain the property of their original producers.
When we use excerpts, we clearly identify the source agency and provide a link to the full recording whenever available.Our goal is to increase accessibility and civic understanding by presenting accurate, factual context — never to alter or misrepresent original statements or footage.
🔍 2️⃣ Neutrality & Accuracy Policy
Our Commitment to Neutral Coverage
We summarize public meetings, legislative updates, and community issues in plain, factual language.
Our goal is to make local government more understandable — not to persuade, editorialize, or advocate.We verify all content against official sources such as city, county, and state publications, and we include citations or links wherever possible.
We do not endorse political candidates, campaigns, or advocacy organizations.
All sources are selected based on relevance to Evanston and Uinta County public life, not political affiliation.
