Correction Policy

At TrendEarner News, we are committed to maintaining the highest standards of accuracy, transparency, and accountability in our journalism. We recognize that mistakes can happen, and when they do, we take immediate action to correct them and keep our readers fully informed.

This Correction Policy outlines our editorial commitment to correcting errors, updating articles, and engaging with readers who help us ensure our content remains reliable and up-to-date.

✅ Editorial Premise

TrendEarner News aims to publish factual, balanced, and timely reporting based on the best available information at the time of publication. If any inaccuracies are identified—either internally or by readers—we take full responsibility and act quickly to correct the record.

🔄 Article Updates & Edits

  • We clearly indicate when an article has been updated, whether for a factual correction, clarification, or additional context.
  • Major corrections are flagged at the top of the article with a timestamp and a short explanation of what was changed and why.
  • Minor updates (such as grammar or formatting) that do not affect factual accuracy may be made without a formal correction notice.
  • New information added post-publication is incorporated transparently, with a note explaining the update when appropriate.

🛠️ Corrections

We issue formal corrections when:

  • A factual error (e.g. names, dates, statistics, quotes) is identified.
  • A visual asset (e.g. image, video, graphic) is inaccurate or misleading.
  • A headline or caption misrepresents the story’s content.

Each correction includes a brief explanation of the original error and the nature of the change.

🧾 Clarifications

Clarifications are used when:

  • The original content is factually accurate but lacks clarity, precision, or complete context.
  • The language may be misunderstood or needs refinement to reflect the full story.

Clarifications are typically made within the body of the article, along with a note to readers when the change is material.

🧷 Editor’s Notes

In situations where a correction involves:

  • Ethical concerns
  • Significant editorial misjudgment
  • Or impacts public understanding of a story

…we may add an Editor’s Note for full transparency. These notes are reviewed and approved by a senior editor and appear at the beginning or end of the article.
