Fact-Checking Policy
The Satta King First is committed to doing its best to publish accurate information across all of its content. We take many steps to ensure accuracy: We investigate claims with scepticism; question assumptions; and challenge conventional wisdom.
Scope
This policy applies to all factual claims, data, and statistics published on the Website, including:
- News articles
- Opinion pieces
- Blog posts
- Infographics
- Social media posts
Our Principles
- Accuracy:Â We strive to verify the accuracy of all factual claims before publication.
- Transparency:Â We disclose our sources and methodology for fact-checking.
- Fairness:Â We consider all sides of an issue before reaching a conclusion.
- Accountability:Â We are committed to correcting errors and updating outdated information.
Process
-
Research: Our fact-checkers research all factual claims using reputable sources, such as government websites, scientific journals, and academic databases.
-
Verification: We verify the accuracy of information by cross-referencing it with multiple sources and contacting experts when necessary.
-
Context: We consider the context in which a claim is made and avoid misinterpretations.
-
Rating: We assign a rating to each claim based on its level of accuracy:
- True:Â The claim is supported by clear and convincing evidence.
- Mostly True: The claim is generally accurate, but may contain minor inaccuracies.
- False:Â The claim is inaccurate or misleading.
- Uncertain:Â There is insufficient evidence to determine the accuracy of the claim.
-
Corrections: If we discover an error in our content, we will publish a correction promptly and transparently. We will also notify readers who have shared or commented on the content about the correction.
Appeals
If you disagree with a fact-check assessment, you can submit an appeal. Appeals should be submitted in writing to [email protected] and should include specific details about the claim you are disputing and the evidence you believe we have overlooked.
Conclusion
