About Tickety-Boo News
A daily round-up of positive, true news stories from around the world, each one linked to its original source.
What we publish
Real stories of things going right: a species recovering, a treatment that works, a community that pulled together. Every story reports something that has actually happened. Opinion pieces, adverts, predictions and party politics are left out.
How we make our stories
Several times a day we look through reporting from established news outlets for genuinely positive stories. Each one is then written up in our own words as a short summary, with AI helping with the drafting.
Every draft is checked against the original report so that names, numbers and quotes match what was published, and drafts that can't be fully checked are dropped. A person then reads and approves each story before it goes live. Every story links to the outlet that first reported it, and we encourage you to read the original.
