Fact checking Policy

At Public Paper, we value the open exchange of ideas and diverse perspectives. However, we also recognize the importance of accuracy and integrity in the information shared on our platform. To ensure the quality and credibility of content, we have established the following fact-checking policy:

Our Commitment to Accuracy:

  • We are dedicated to publishing content that is truthful, well-researched, and free from misinformation.
  • We strive to maintain the highest standards of factual accuracy by implementing thorough fact-checking procedures for all submissions.

Fact-Checking Process:

  • Author Responsibility: Authors are ultimately responsible for the accuracy and verifiability of their own content.
  • Internal Review: All submissions undergo internal review by our editorial team, which includes basic fact-checking measures such as:
    • Verifying the factuality of claims and statements.
    • Checking the credibility of sources cited.
    • Identifying and addressing any potential inconsistencies or factual errors.
    • Ensuring clarity and precision in the language used.
  • External Fact-Checking (Optional):
    • In cases where additional verification is deemed necessary, we may utilize external fact-checking services to further ensure the accuracy of the content.
    • This may involve collaborating with platforms like reportlook.com, which specializes in independent fact-checking.

Transparency and Corrections:

  • We are committed to transparency. If any inaccuracies are identified in published content, we will promptly issue a correction notice and update the content accordingly.
  • Users are encouraged to report any concerns regarding the accuracy of content by contacting us through [email address removed].

Focus on Open Discourse:

While we prioritize factual accuracy, Public Paper recognizes the value of diverse perspectives and interpretations. We aim to create a platform that fosters open dialogue and encourages users to critically evaluate the information they encounter.

Disclaimer:

Public Paper is not a news organization and does not claim to provide comprehensive news coverage. We encourage users to exercise their own judgment and utilize diverse sources for a well-rounded understanding of any given topic.

This fact-checking policy reflects our commitment to providing a platform for reliable and trustworthy information. We believe that by upholding these standards, we can contribute to a more informed and engaged online community.
