golos.media is a news outlet covering the main events in Russia and the world. We publish in Russian and English and aim to report what matters quickly, briefly and with links to the sources.

Where the news comes from

Our stories are based on reports from news agencies, official statements by governments, agencies and companies, and publications by other outlets.

Stories carry a Sources block with links to the material they are based on, so any fact can be checked against the original.

Artificial intelligence

Some stories are prepared with the help of artificial intelligence systems: they help select source reports, draft the text and draw illustrations. The editors watch the feed and correct errors, including after publication.

The covers of many stories are drawn by artificial intelligence. They are drawings on the topic of the story, not photographs of the events.

Most English stories are machine translations of the Russian text. Where the two differ, the Russian original is authoritative.

Corrections

When we find an error, we correct the text and the story shows an Updated label with the date and time of the change. To report an error, write to @golos_media_bot on Telegram. Requests are handled under our Terms of use (in Russian).

No sign-up

There are no accounts, comments or newsletters on the site: you can read the news without telling us anything about yourself. See our Privacy policy (in Russian).
