Newsroom & Masthead

Who makes Saigon Sentinel

Editorial leadership

Saigon Sentinel is a small, independent newsroom. The Editor-in-Chief chooses every subject, sets the standards each article must meet, writes and edits it, reads it against its sources before publication, audits published output, and handles corrections. Our full standards are on the editorial policy page.

Bảo Nguyễn

Editor-in-Chief & Founder

Bảo Nguyễn founded Saigon Sentinel to give the Vietnamese diaspora truly independent, in-depth community coverage at a time when misinformation moves faster than fact-checks and the language barrier makes verification harder than it should be. He sets the editorial standards and quality controls that govern the reporting, chooses the subjects, writes and edits each article, reads it against its sources before publication, audits published output, and handles corrections.
