Betul Media Correction Policy
At Betul Media (hereinafter referred to as “Betul Media,” “We,” “Us,” or “Our”), we take accuracy and transparency seriously. This policy outlines the steps we take to correct any errors found in the information published on our website.
Our Commitment to Accuracy
We strive to deliver accurate and complete news reports based on all available information at the time of publication. We understand our responsibility to our readers and are committed to promptly correcting any errors that may appear on our website.
How We Address Errors
- Digital Platform Advantage: We leverage our digital platform to make corrections swiftly. This includes:
- Updating the content with the corrected information.
- Publishing a correction or clarification notice on our social media handles.
- Sharing an editor’s note within the article itself, detailing the error and the changes made.
- Major Mistakes: In case of significant errors that could potentially spread misinformation, we apologize to our readers promptly and transparently.
Transparency in Updates
- Story Notes: We update stories with clear notes whenever new information becomes available.
- Corrections and Clarifications:
- We use correction notices for substantial mistakes impacting the story’s content.
- Clarifications are used when factual information needs better explanation or when additional comments or updates from relevant parties are included.
- Fact-checking errors are addressed promptly by updating the article and adding a bold “[Correction: Updated Info…]” note at the top.
- Reader Feedback: We encourage readers to submit corrections by emailing [email address removed]. A “Suggest a Correction” option is also available at the bottom of every web story.
Types of Corrections
- Corrections: We promptly publish corrections explaining the need for changes made to articles, photo captions, headlines, graphics, videos, or other published material.
- Clarifications: When our reporting is factually accurate but lacks clarity, we rewrite the language and add clarifications to the story.
- Clarifications may also be used if we initially failed to seek a comment or response that has since been incorporated into the story, or if new information necessitates revisions to our account of an event.
- Editor’s Notes: For critical errors or ethical concerns, an editor’s note will be added explaining the issue. These notes require approval from a senior editor.
Additional Correction Policies
- Reader Comments: Our team acknowledges reader-identified errors in the comments section and promptly updates the content.
- Social Media Corrections: We correct any inaccurate information posted on social media platforms. If the information cannot be edited, we retract it.
- Error Attribution: We avoid assigning blame to individual reporters or editors.
- Reporting Inaccuracies: Readers can report inaccurate stories using the “Suggest a Correction” section at the end of each web story or by emailing [email address removed].
Take-Down Requests
We do not entertain take-down requests based solely on inaccuracy claims. We investigate and publish corrections if necessary. Fairness may require updates or follow-up reports, but we will not remove the original article as though it never existed. We only review requests to remove publicly available personal data if the individual faces physical harm due to its publication.
Content Modification using AI Tools
Betul Media utilizes AI tools for content modification. This allows for quick corrections and updates. Please submit corrections via email ([email address removed]) with details about the error and the story link. We will promptly modify the content and image.
