Correction Policy for NewsUS24
NewsUS24 (hereinafter referred to as “NewsUS24” / “We” / “Us” / “Our”) is committed to transparency and accountability. Through this Correction Policy, we aim to outline the steps we take when incorrect information is published on our website. We value our readers and take full responsibility for correcting errors promptly, ensuring you’re informed of any changes as soon as possible.
Premise
At NewsUS24, our goal is to deliver accurate and comprehensive news based on the information available at the time of reporting. We strive to address errors in our published content as soon as they come to our attention. As a digital platform, we issue corrections or clarifications via our social media channels, publish editor’s notes detailing the changes, and update our content accordingly. In cases of significant errors that could lead to misinformation, we issue a timely apology to our readers.
Updating a Report
We make it a practice to add notes to stories when updates occur. Whether we’re correcting a major mistake or adding new comments and updates from stakeholders, we use corrections, clarifications, or editor’s notes to keep you informed. If an error is identified in our fact-checking process (aligned with our Fact-Check Policy available at [“Fact-Check Policy”]), we update the article and note the correction at the top in bold as [Correction: updated Info…], explaining the change. We encourage our readers to report errors by emailing us at connect@NewsUS24.com, and every article includes a “Suggest a Correction” option at the bottom.
Corrections
When we substantively correct an article, photo caption, headline, graphic, video, or other material, we promptly publish a correction detailing the reason for the change.
Clarification
If our journalism is factually accurate but the language lacks clarity or detail, we rewrite the text and add a clarification to the story. Clarifications also note when we’ve added a comment or response that was initially omitted or when new reporting alters our original account of an event.
Editor’s Notes
A correction that challenges the core of an article or raises significant ethical concerns may warrant an editor’s note. This includes a detailed explanation of the issue, approved by a senior editor.
Other Corrections Policies
- If a reader flags an error in the comments, our community team may acknowledge the correction there.
- Errors published on social media are corrected on the same platform. If editing isn’t possible, we retract the incorrect information.
- We avoid blaming individual reporters or editors (e.g., “due to a reporting error” or “due to an editing error”).
Reporting Inaccuracies
If you believe a story we’ve published is inaccurate, please let us know via the “Suggest a Correction” section at the end of each article or email us at connect@NewsUS24.com.
Take-down Requests
As a matter of editorial policy, we do not honor take-down requests. If a subject claims a story is inaccurate, we’ll investigate and, if needed, issue a correction. For fairness, we may provide updates or follow-ups to previous coverage, but we won’t remove content as if it never existed. We only consider takedown requests for publicly available personal data if the individual faces physical harm due to its presence, subject to review.
AI-Assisted Content
We utilize AI tools (such as ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and others) to assist with content creation and modification. If errors arise, we welcome corrections and make instant updates. If you spot an issue, please provide details and the story link via email to connect@NewsUS24.com, and we’ll revise the content and images as needed.
