Read More About corrections policy explains how we handle factual errors, corrections, updates, clarifications, and newsroom accountability.
Standards
Last Updated: June 2026
Accuracy sits at the core of everything Read More About publishes. No newsroom is infallible — when we make mistakes, we correct them promptly, visibly, and without obscuring what was originally published.
Different types of errors require different responses:
Spelling mistakes, grammatical issues, or typographical errors that do not affect the meaning or factual content of an article are corrected without a formal correction note.
Errors involving names, dates, figures, quotes, or material facts are corrected directly in the article. A clearly labeled correction note is added explaining what changed and why.
As events evolve, articles may be updated to incorporate newly verified information. Updates are timestamped so readers can track how coverage has changed over time.
Where an error materially affects the meaning, fairness, or accuracy of a story, the article is reviewed by a senior editor and a substantive correction or clarification note is published at the top of the piece.
Corrections are made directly in the affected article — we do not remove errors silently or redirect readers elsewhere. If an error is identified after publication, the correction will appear in the same article, clearly labeled with the date it was issued.
Depending on the nature of the mistake, Read More About may use a correction note, clarification note, update note, or editor's note. Each serves a distinct purpose and is chosen based on what a reader most needs to understand what changed.
To help us review a request efficiently, please include the following when you contact us:
Readers are a critical part of our accuracy process. If you spot an error in any article, we want to hear from you. Our editorial team reviews every substantive correction request and responds where appropriate.
Trust is earned by acknowledging mistakes openly. By correcting errors clearly and promptly, we aim to produce journalism that readers can rely on — including when we fall short.
