Headline

The headline as it appeared at the source. Don't rewrite it; we'll handle that.

Source Publication

Brief Summary

One or two sentences on what the story is about. Helps our editors evaluate quickly without burning time on dead links.

Why It Matters

Your editorial angle. What makes this newsworthy from a Caribbean business perspective?

Optional: Credit and Contact

Anonymous submissions are welcome. If you'd like a credit on the published article or a follow-up email if our editors have a question, share your details below. We never publish your email and we never share contact information with third parties.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will you publish my submitted story?

Not necessarily. Our editorial team reviews every submission against LCN's quality standards. Strong leads with verifiable sources have a high publication rate. We don't guarantee publication; we guarantee a fair editorial review.

Will you credit me?

If your tip leads to a published article, the original source publication is always credited. If you add your name to the optional "Your Name" field, we'll credit you as the tipster on the published piece. Leave it blank to stay anonymous. Either way, the story still gets a fair review.

Do I have to give my name and email?

No. Both are optional. We accept anonymous tips. If you do share your email, it stays private — we use it only if our editors have a clarifying question. We never publish it and never share it with third parties.

How long does review take?

Same-day editorial review during business days. If we publish, the article goes live within 24 hours of approval.

What if I have insider information?

Don't put insider tips on this public form. Email news@lacaribenanews.com with the details. We protect sources.

What stories don't qualify?

We don't cover personal disputes, marketing announcements without news value, content that fails source verification, or stories outside LCN's Caribbean business beat. Press releases go through our PR Submission page instead.

Can I submit multiple stories?

Yes. Each submission is reviewed on its own merits. Submit one at a time so we can track each properly.
