Sharing confidential information with Jordan News

What makes a good news tip?

To turn your tip into a story:

  • It needs to be based on fact and be verifiable by a credible source.
  • It must be backed by some form of evidence whether that is a document(s) or witnesses. In the event that such evidence is not in your possession, it must exist somewhere and be accessible to Jordan News.
  • The issue must be newsworthy with an actual real-life impact that spans a reasonably large segment of society or group of people.

To submit feedback on our journalism, story ideas, news releases, or for other general correspondence, visit our contact us page.

What happens after you submit a tip?

The Jordan News team actively goes through tip submission but cannot guarantee that each and every tip will be acknowledged. Information submitted will only be accessible to our editors and reporters and will under no circumstance be revealed to third parties.

Sending physical material

  • Delete your browsing history and other activity that could be traced back to you.
  • Do not email, call or contact Jordan News via social media.
  • Do not inform those around you of your intentions to disclose the information in question.
