Corrections Policy

Last updated: July 4, 2026

Accuracy sits at the heart of what we do, and setting the record straight quickly counts for more with us than dodging scrutiny. This policy explains how we handle corrections and clarifications.

How to ask for a correction

If you think something we have published is wrong or misleading, get in touch through the Contact page. It helps to give us the headline, the page address and a short note on what you believe is off, along with anything that backs it up.

What we correct

We look at, and where the case is made, fix factual errors, misidentifications, wrong figures, missing or misleading context and significant omissions. We weigh each request on its own merits, no matter who brings it to us.

How we handle corrections

Once a correction is due, we update the article or page as soon as we reasonably can. For changes weighty enough to alter the meaning or substance of a piece, we attach a plainly worded note saying what changed and when, so the record stays out in the open.

Minor edits

Typos, formatting fixes, broken links and small edits for clarity that leave the meaning intact may be put right without a formal note.

Developing stories

Fast-moving stories get updated as fresh information is confirmed. When an update meaningfully changes an earlier version, we say so rather than quietly writing over what we first reported.

Response time

We try to review correction requests as fast as is practical. How long it takes can depend on how knotty the issue is, but every genuine request gets our attention.
