Corrections & Clarifications
Getting the facts right matters to us, and so does being open when we get something wrong. This page explains how we handle corrections and clarifications, and how to ask us to fix an error.
Our corrections policy
We correct errors of fact promptly and transparently. When we learn that something we published is inaccurate, we fix it as soon as we reasonably can rather than leaving an error to stand.
A correction addresses a factual error. A clarification addresses wording that, while not strictly incorrect, could be misunderstood. We use whichever is appropriate to the situation.
Aggregated versus original content
For our own original content — such as our Daily Brief summaries and Explainers — we are responsible for the facts, and we will correct any error we made.
For aggregated items that link to another publisher, factual errors in the underlying reporting are the publisher’s to correct, and we would encourage you to raise those with the outlet that reported them. We will, however, fix any error we introduced ourselves in a headline, summary, or classification we wrote for the item.
How significant corrections are marked
Significant corrections — those that change the substance or meaning of a story — are noted on the corrected item so that readers can see that a change was made and understand what it was.
Minor fixes, such as a typo or a broken link, may be made without a visible note. Our aim is to be transparent about anything that could have affected a reader’s understanding.
How to request a correction
If you believe we have published an error, please contact us at hey@social-justice.news with the URL of the item and a clear description of what is inaccurate, along with any source that helps us verify the correct information.
We review correction requests in good faith. For issues that are really about rights or copyright rather than factual accuracy, please see our Rights & Takedowns and DMCA pages.
