Editorial Standards
Corrections & Retractions
Accuracy is the foundation of credible journalism. When we get something wrong, we fix it — publicly and transparently.
Our commitment to accuracy: Justice for One Justice for All takes factual errors seriously. We review all correction requests in good faith, respond promptly, and publish transparent corrections when errors are confirmed. We do not alter published articles without notation. Every correction is dated and attributed.
Types of Corrections
Minor Correction
Typographical errors, misspelled names, incorrect dates, or minor factual inaccuracies that do not materially affect the substance of the report. Published as an inline correction note on the original article.
Significant Correction
Factual errors that materially misrepresent a person, organization, or event. Published as a prominent correction notice at the top of the original article, with a summary of what was changed and why.
Retraction
Reserved for serious errors where the core premise of a report is found to be false or where continued publication would cause significant harm. A retraction notice replaces or prominently precedes the original article.
Right of Response
Individuals or organizations named in accountability reporting may submit a written response for consideration of publication alongside the original report. Responses must be factual and relevant.
How to Submit a Correction Request
Identify the Error
Locate the specific article, post, or report containing the information you believe is inaccurate. Note the headline, publication date, and the exact claim in question.
Gather Your Evidence
Compile supporting documentation — public records, official statements, court documents, or other verifiable sources that contradict the published claim.
Submit Your Request
Post your correction request on the Bulletin Board with the subject line "CORRECTION REQUEST" or use the contact form below. Include all relevant details and evidence.
We Review in Good Faith
Our editorial team will review your submission, verify the evidence, and respond within a reasonable timeframe. We may contact you for additional information.
Resolution
If a factual error is confirmed, we publish a correction notice on the original article. For serious errors, a full retraction may be issued. All corrections are dated and transparent.
