TRANSPARENCY & ERRATA ● TIMESTAMPTED RECORD

How corrections and updates are recorded

When an error occurs, we fix it immediately and leave an indelible public record. We never quietly edit or rewrite past reporting.

When a material factual error is confirmed, FomoNewZ updates the article and records what changed. Routine spelling, punctuation and layout fixes may be made without a correction note when they do not change meaning.

Readers should be able to tell whether a factual statement changed after publication. A correction note identifies the issue and the corrected information without hiding the original problem.

Correction requests are reviewed against the cited source and any additional documentation supplied by the reader or subject.

01

Classification of Editorial Revisions

We distinguish clearly between minor typographical improvements and substantive factual corrections:

  • Substantive Factual Correction: An error involving a date, financial figure, name, regulatory status, price quote, or legal attribution. Requires a permanent, timestamped errata notice appended to the article.
  • Clarification: An update where the original text was accurate but potentially ambiguous. A clarification notice provides additional context without altering the underlying fact.
  • Routine Typographical Edits: Spelling, grammar, or layout styling improvements that do not alter factual meaning may be made directly without a public notice.
02

The Published Correction Box

When a substantive correction is executed, an errata box is placed prominently at the base of the article containing: the exact revision timestamp, the original wording, the corrected statement, and the evidentiary basis for the change.

03

Retraction Protocols for Breaking News

If breaking reporting is subsequently proven to be founded on fabricated documentation, spoofed communications, or falsified transactions, FomoNewZ issues a formal Retraction Dispatch. The original headline is prepended with [RETRACTED], and an executive editorial memorandum details the evidentiary failure.

04

How to File a Correction Request

Email corrections@fomonewz.com with: (1) the article URL, (2) the exact passage disputed, and (3) documentary proof supporting the correction. All substantiated requests receive newsroom review within 24 hours.

TRANSPARENCY & AUDIT

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Standards

Direct, audited answers from the FomoNewZ editorial board regarding our verification protocols, conflict registers, and scoring rubrics.

What is the threshold for publishing a correction note?

Any error of fact that could reasonably mislead a reader regarding a company, protocol, individual, price point, or regulatory status requires a visible, permanent correction note.

Will FomoNewZ unpublish an article if a company threatens legal action?

No. If reporting is accurate and substantiated by evidence, we do not retract or delete articles due to legal pressure or public relations complaints. We correct verified factual inaccuracies only.

How does FomoNewZ handle corrections in French and Arabic editions?

When an English article receives a factual correction, the correction is propagated to the French and Arabic editions, complete with localized correction notes.

Are product review ratings subject to correction?

If a review misstated a provider's fee schedule, custody structure, or supported jurisdictions, the factual record is corrected immediately and the score is re-tabulated based on the updated facts.

How can I check the revision history of an article?

Each published article displays its original publication date and 'Last Updated' timestamp. Substantive revisions feature the correction box at the foot of the page.
