Our newsroom sometimes reports under the name “Pioneer Staff Report.” This name is used when reporters paraphrase basic news briefs from official sources, such as an email or press release that requires little or no reporting.

In other cases, this name is used when a news story has multiple authors or when the story consists of a summary of previously reported news stories from different sources. If outside sources are used, this is noted in the story.
