Policies and Standards

The Daily Press strives to produce a newspaper that is fair, accurate and free from bias. We strenuously avoid the use of unnamed sources except in cases where personal safety is involved. We fact check and seek out multiple sources.

We promptly correct significant errors brought to the attention of the editor.  Online stories are corrected immediately after an error has been found. Stories containing a material error will have a correction published in the next print edition.

To submit a correction, please email editor@smdp.com

Submitting Your Opinion

Opinions expressed are those of the writer and do not necessarily reflect those of the Santa Monica Daily Press staff. Letters will be published at the discretion of the paper and on a space-available basis. All letters and guest editorials are subject to editing for space and content. Preference will be given to those that are emailed to letters@smdp.com. All letters must include the author’s name, address and telephone number.
