The EDM NEWS has editorial guidelines, like any publication:

  2. Posts and Comments on the EDM NEWS Blog should reflect the principles of our recovery program to which we all aspire in our personal recovery efforts.
  3. In keeping our Tradition 12 (Anonymity) please be vigilant regarding your content both written and photographic. No anonymity-breaking images and please avoid political or religious content.
