Media explainer
Corrections and material edits to media reporting are part of the public record. This page (and the linked /media-analysis pages) tracks notable corrections.
Tracking corrections is part of treating sources with appropriate weight under the source-reliability scale.
Outlets correct copy routinely, and a correction is ordinarily a sign that editorial process is working rather than that coverage was unsound.
Corrections and material edits are nonetheless part of the public record, and in a case where reporting is cited back as evidence it matters whether a claim survived in the form first published.
This site's own corrections policy applies the same standard to itself: clear factual errors — wrong date, wrong name, wrong quote, broken source link — are corrected on notice, with the page's last-updated date carried on every page.
Because treating a source with appropriate weight means knowing whether what it published still stands in the form it was published.
Yes. The corrections policy sets out how to submit one and what happens next; clear factual errors are fixed on notice.
