Articles

Articles should be stories worth telling. The subject of these stories can be anything ranging from entertainment to profile pieces to politics. However, writing is not solely limited to this. The subject of a piece can be whatever the writer wants; they have complete creative control. All we ask is that it be appropriate for a general audience. The use of extreme profanity or other harsh language will be omitted or not published. The use of AP style is encouraged in your writing.

Visual pieces can be photo-heavy articles, slideshows, videos, stand-alone photos, galleries, original illustrations, and more. If it is a video, the Daily Planet will happily feature it on our YouTube Channel and share it on all of our social media platforms. We will also embed a contributor’s project, as long as it reflects our code of ethics. We stress the use of appropriate behavior, language, and gestures in this section. We also encourage creativity.
