1. Our Commitment to Accuracy
Mediagenda is committed to publishing accurate, reliable, and well‑sourced content. We do not knowingly publish false or misleading information. If an error occurs, we promptly correct or clarify it and publish a transparent note explaining the change. We take journalistic integrity seriously.
2. The Fact‑Checking Process
a) Multi‑Level Review
Every story—including breaking news and features—is reviewed by professional editors who verify key facts, sources, dates, names, and data. The review process scales depending on the story’s complexity and sensitivity.
b) Source Verification
We prioritize primary sources-official documents, expert interviews, and data reports. Whenever possible, we cross-check facts with multiple independent sources.
c) Editorial Oversight
Our fact-checkers and senior editors work collaboratively to validate claims. For high-stakes or sensitive content, multiple editors must approve before publication.
3. Correcting Errors with Transparency
a) Prompt Corrections
If we discover substantive factual errors—such as incorrect dates, misidentifications, and misquoted statistics—we will correct the article, detailing what changes were made. Corrections are labelled clearly at the top of the article.
b) Clarifications
If content is technically accurate but lacks context or is unclear, we add clarifications within the article to improve accuracy and reader understanding.
c) Editor’s Notes
For issues involving ethical questions or significant interpretive changes, we may include an Editor’s Note to provide additional context and explicitly explain the revision. These are authored and approved by senior editorial staff.
4. Public Feedback & Corrections
a) Suggest a Correction
At the end of each article, there’s a “Suggest a Correction” link. Readers may flag inaccuracies, factual inconsistencies, or missing context. We review every submission promptly.
b) Direct Contact
Readers can also email(info@mediagenda.com) our editorial team directly to report errors or ask for clarification. Please include the article link, specifics of the issue, and sources if available.
5. Social Media & Third-Party Platforms
If incorrect information is shared via our official social channels, we update or retract the post and add a clear note linking to the corrected story. We work to ensure errors don’t propagate to other platforms.
6. No “Take-Down” Policy
Our standard practice is not to remove articles entirely. Instead, we evaluate concerns carefully and publish corrections or follow-ups. Full removal is only considered in exceptional cases involving legal or ethical issues.
7. Standards & Methodology
a) Professional Practice
Our process is based on globally recognized journalistic verification principles—fact-checking grounded in verification, multiple-source confirmation, and transparent editorial oversight.
b) Independent Review
We strive to comply with the standards of the International Fact-Checking Network (IFCN) and adhere to global best practices in transparency, fairness, and thoroughness.
