I'm not sure how much I believe this, given what EdSurge has published in the past. It here touts its Voices of Change project, "creating opportunities for educators to reflect, share and learn from one another through journalism, storytelling and research." The problem is that this content is mixed almost indistinguishably with its sponsored content, which you can read about on its ethics page. "EdSurge allows Sponsored Content in two forms: (1) Content produced by EdSurge Studio on behalf of its advertising partners; and (2) Content produced by advertisers that meet our editorial standards." The publication says it posts disclaimers, but the reason advertisers don't just advertise is that they know readers will be deceived by it. But these are EdSurge's choices to make, and it's up to you to assess the publication according to your own standards.
