At box765 ventures and Vee Media, transparency is a core value. Our goal is to make it clear who we are, how we operate, and how we are funded, so our readers can trust the news we provide.
box765 ventures is 100% owned and operated by Vivian Bostick, a sophomore majoring in Media at Ball State University. All services under Vee Media, including box765 ventures, are created, maintained, and managed solely by Bostick.
Neither Vee Media nor box765 ventures is for sale, and all work is completely independent of Ball State University. We make our editorial and operational decisions without institutional oversight.
All reporting, editing, and publishing decisions are made solely by box765 ventures staff. No advertiser, donor, or outside entity can influence what we publish. Our editorial independence ensures that every story reflects our commitment to accuracy, fairness, and the public interest.
