Untethered and free, breaking the rule.

A bridge to understanding, compassion as guide.
Speak the truth with a tender touch,
For in sensitivity, we find truth’s clutch.

Sing the aria of fairness, let justice lead,
In every sentence, in every deed.
For a fair reportage, a beacon to aspire,
A flame of justice that never shall tire.
The Anthem of Privacy:
Respect the sanctity of private space,
A sentinel’s duty, protecting the grace.
In the sphere of journalism, let privacy reign,
A shield for individuals from unwarranted pain.

Let the legacy endure, a timeless caress.
For in ethical reporting, a legacy is spun,
A chronicle of truth, for generations to come.

A commitment to ethics, where values swirl.
In the tapestry of truth, let the stories be sung,
A timeless hymn of reporting, where virtues are among.
