At Glamester, we are committed to providing readers with accurate, transparent and responsibly reported news. While our editorial and fact-checking processes are designed to minimise errors, mistakes can occasionally occur, particularly when reporting developing or breaking news.
Our Glamester Corrections Policy explains how we identify, review and correct factual errors in published content.
Our Commitment to Accuracy
Accuracy is a fundamental part of responsible journalism.
If we discover that a published article contains a factual error, we review the information and take appropriate action based on the nature and significance of the error.
Our objective is straightforward: when we identify a meaningful factual mistake, we correct it rather than leave inaccurate information available to readers.
Corrections may involve updating an article, adding a correction note, clarifying information or, where necessary, substantially revising a report.
What We Consider a Correction
A correction is generally appropriate when published information contains a significant factual error.
Examples may include incorrect:
- Names
- Dates
- Locations
- Statistics
- Figures
- Quotes
- Organisations
- Titles or positions
- Descriptions of documented events
- Other material facts
The appropriate response depends on the nature and significance of the error.
Minor Changes and Editorial Updates
Not every change to an article constitutes a formal correction.
Minor issues such as:
- Spelling mistakes
- Grammar
- Punctuation
- Formatting
- Typographical errors
- Non-material wording improvements
may be corrected directly without a separate correction notice.
We may also update an article to improve clarity or provide additional context without the change representing a factual correction.
How We Handle Significant Errors
When a significant factual error is identified, Glamester may:
- Review the original information and available sources.
- Confirm the correct information using reliable sources.
- Correct the inaccurate information.
- Add a correction note when appropriate.
- Update the article’s information where necessary.
- Review related information if the error could affect other parts of the report.
The purpose of this process is to ensure that readers are not left with a materially inaccurate understanding of the story.
Corrections to Breaking News
Breaking news can change quickly as authorities, organisations and witnesses provide additional information.
An initial report may therefore require subsequent updates as facts become clearer.
When an early report is later shown to contain inaccurate information, Glamester may update the article and explain the relevant correction where appropriate.
We distinguish between a new development and an actual correction.
For example, if an official figure changes because authorities have released a later confirmed figure, the article may be updated to reflect the latest information. If the original figure was simply reported incorrectly, that may require a correction.
Reader-Submitted Corrections
Readers can contact Glamester if they believe an article contains an inaccurate or misleading factual statement.
When submitting a correction request, readers should provide:
- The article URL
- The specific statement in question
- The reason they believe it is inaccurate
- Supporting evidence or a reliable source, where available
Correction requests can be sent to:
Glamester News Desk
Email: editor@glamester.com
Our editorial team reviews legitimate correction requests and determines whether an amendment is necessary.
Submitting a correction request does not automatically mean that an article will be changed. Information is reviewed against available evidence and reliable sources before an editorial decision is made.
Corrections and Attribution
Sometimes an article accurately reports what a person, organisation or publication said, but the underlying claim itself is disputed or later shown to be incorrect.
In such cases, Glamester aims to make the attribution clear.
For example, when appropriate, we may report:
According to [source], the organisation made the claim.
This distinguishes a reported statement from an independently verified fact.
If subsequent evidence materially changes the understanding of the claim, the article may be updated accordingly.
Transparency With Readers
Glamester believes corrections should be handled transparently and proportionately.
For significant factual errors, a correction note may be added to the article explaining what was changed.
A correction may appear in a format such as:
Correction: An earlier version of this article incorrectly stated [information]. The article has been updated to reflect the correct information.
The wording and placement of a correction may vary depending on the nature of the error.
Article Updates
News stories can develop after publication.
Glamester may update articles when reliable new information becomes available, including:
- Official statements
- Confirmed figures
- New developments
- Court decisions
- Government announcements
- Scientific findings
- Statements from relevant organisations
- Additional verified reporting
Where appropriate, the article’s Updated date should reflect a substantive update.
An update does not necessarily mean the original article contained an error.
Removing or Substantially Revising Content
In exceptional circumstances, an article may require substantial revision.
This may occur if:
- A central fact was incorrect
- Important information was subsequently disproven
- The original report relied on information that was later established to be unreliable
- A significant misunderstanding materially affected the article
Where appropriate, Glamester may preserve an editorial record of the change rather than silently removing important historical context.
Editorial Independence
Corrections are based on factual accuracy and available evidence.
Glamester does not alter factual reporting simply because a person, organisation, political group or other party disagrees with coverage.
A disagreement with an article’s interpretation or viewpoint is not necessarily evidence of a factual error.
Where a legitimate factual issue is identified, however, it should be reviewed independently of political, commercial or personal pressure.
Our Responsibility
Glamester recognises that trust is built over time through consistent editorial standards and transparency.
Our responsibility is not to claim that mistakes will never occur. It is to maintain a process for identifying errors, reviewing credible concerns and correcting significant inaccuracies when they are established.
Our corrections process is guided by:
- Accuracy
- Transparency
- Accountability
- Source verification
- Editorial independence
- Responsibility to readers
