Accessibility Statement for The Modern Headline
The Modern Headline is committed to ensuring that our news, reporting, and digital tools are accessible to all users. We strive to provide an inclusive experience for readers of all abilities and to maintain a website that supports effective access to information regardless of technology or individual needs.
Our Commitment
We aim to meet or exceed the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA. These guidelines outline how to make online content more accessible for people with disabilities, including users with visual, auditory, cognitive, and motor impairments.
To support this commitment, we focus on the following areas:
- Clear, readable content and consistent formatting.
- Keyboard navigability and logical page structure.
- Text alternatives for meaningful images.
- Proper use of headings, labels, and ARIA attributes.
- Compatibility with major assistive technologies.
Ongoing Improvements
Accessibility is an ongoing effort. We review our content, templates, and design patterns on a regular basis to identify and resolve accessibility issues. As our site continues to grow, we apply accessibility best practices to new features, functions, and editorial workflows.
Third Party Content
Some articles may embed or link to third party media such as videos, social platforms, or interactive tools. We cannot guarantee the accessibility of third party content, but we aim to select sources that meet reasonable accessibility standards whenever possible.
Known Limitations
If any part of our site does not fully meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards, it is not intentional. We are actively working to identify and correct issues as they arise. If you encounter a barrier, we want to hear from you.
