Our position on “news”
Facts not opinion
We believe that if a news source is biased left or right, they are not a true source of news. Biased media sources simply are telling only one side of a story or substituting opinions as facts to meet a narrative. CUN.NEWS is an unbiased, apolitical news source so we do not take sides or publish only news that supports one side of an issue, we present to you the facts as clearly as possible so you can make up your own mind. We do not try to sell a viewpoint, manipulate or mislead you, or make the facts on an issue so confusing you just give up and accept our point of view. Our reporting is designed to empower our readers with the knowledge and facts they need to understand a problem and make up their own minds.
Accurate reporting
When we receive information, we weed out any misinformation, and if we are not able to verify the information, we don’t report it at all. At CUN.NEWS our philosophy is that it is more important to report true information then mislead our readers for the sake of being the first to report it or get more clicks!
The problem with Social Media
Social media monitors what you look at and only shows you what their paying clients want you to know. Their sites are designed to market ideas or products by telling what you want to hear and are not required to be truthful. There is a reason that there are no awards or recognitions are given for “honesty” in social media. They are not designed to be a true source of news. CUN.NEWS uses social media to alert you to news stories, events, and emergencies, not to market a point of view.
We are accountable to the community we serve
At this time 90% of the news sources in the area are owned by large publishing corporations whose management is not accountable to you or our CommUnity. CUN.NEWS is a locally owned, community-based business small business. We are accountable to you and our CommUnity.
CUN.NEWS Round Rock a beta site. It is an “eNews Service” that is being developed to fill the void in cities and towns who need a local CommUnity news source that is focused on the CommUnity it serves. Current plans are to franchise our eNews Service to other growing communities and to add multiple language eNews Channels in those communities as well. If you are interested in setting up a CUN.NEWS eService or an alternate language eNews Service in your community you can contact us CunNewsNetwork@gmail.com for details.
Additional services to come
We have just added a free email Alert subscription service which sends one email a day with a brief description of all the latest news stories and alerts that have been added to the eNews site in the previous 24 hours to keep you informed on what is happening in our CommUnity. Shortly we will be adding a Podcast service, Text News Alert service, and monthly newsletter service.
