Our Terms
- Stories must credit Fresnoland and/or the Fresno Documenters. This includes byline credit (for example, “Cassandra Garibay, Fresnoland”) and a line at the top of the story that reads, “This story was originally published by Fresnoland, a nonprofit news organization,” where “Fresnoland” is hyperlinked to the fresnoland.org version of the story.
- Stories must retain original language. You may not edit our content, except for minor updates to time and location references or editorial style. You may also make minor revisions for style or headline size, and you may trim stories for space. You must also retain all original hyperlinks, including links to Fresnoland newsletters, events and any other fresnoland.org calls-to-action.
- Photographs and illustrations may not be republished without additional permission. If you would like to republish any story elements besides text and links, please contact isabel@fresnoland.org to inquire about media rights.
