Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Welcome to the FAQ page for Midtown Tribune — your source for news, opinion, and smart satire from the heart of New York City.

We aim to inform, entertain, and make you think — sometimes all at once.


What is Midtown Tribune?

Midtown Tribune is an independent, NYC-based online news and commentary platform. We focus on what’s happening in New York City, across America, and around the world — always with a sharp eye and an independent voice.

Our coverage is grounded in official sources and enriched by thoughtful summaries, original commentary, and unique visual content.


Do you use artificial intelligence (AI)?

Yes — we embrace technology as a tool, not a replacement for good judgment.

We use AI to:

  • Summarize complex news stories for faster reading
  • Generate editorial-style cartoons that add a humorous or satirical twist to our content
  • Enhance clarity, speed, and accessibility in our editorial workflow

All content is reviewed by a human editor before publishing.


🗺️ Where are you based?

We’re proudly based in New York City, reporting from the city’s core — Midtown and beyond. Our focus is local, national, and international, depending on the relevance and impact of the story.


What kind of stories do you cover?

We cover a mix of:

  • Breaking news (local, national, and international)
  • NYC politics, safety, and public life
  • U.S. and global political developments
  • Social commentary and media analysis
  • Satirical cartoons and visual takes on current events

We aim for clarity, context, and a touch of edge.


Are you politically affiliated?

No. Midtown Tribune is independent and unaffiliated with any political party, campaign, or lobbying group. Our editorial stance is simple: follow the facts, question power, and respect the reader.


Can I submit a tip or story idea?

We welcome ideas and tips. If you’ve spotted something worth reporting — whether in NYC or elsewhere — use our Contact Form or message us on social media. We respect anonymity and never publish unverified claims.


💬 Do you accept guest articles or opinions?

We’re open to thoughtful, original guest submissions — especially from NYC residents, writers, and observers with something fresh to say.

If you have an idea or draft, you’re welcome to reach out via our contact channels.


What’s the deal with the cartoons?

We use AI-generated illustrations and cartoons to add visual commentary and humor to our reporting. Think of them as modern editorial cartoons — fast, smart, and often ironic.

They’re meant to make you laugh, raise an eyebrow, or spark thought — sometimes all three.


Do you collect or sell personal data?
