At TheDailyStates.com, we are committed to publishing news that is accurate, balanced, and trustworthy. Our readers rely on us for credible information, and we take that responsibility seriously. This Fact-Checking Policy outlines the principles and processes we follow to ensure the integrity of our reporting.
1. Our Commitment to Accuracy
We strive to verify every piece of information before it is published. Our editorial team cross-checks facts from multiple credible sources, including:
- Government and official websites
- Press releases and public statements
- Reputed news agencies
- Academic and industry experts
- Eye-witness accounts, where applicable
2. Use of Reliable Sources
We prioritize primary sources over secondary reporting. Whenever possible, we go directly to the source β official records, interviews, live statements, or data sets β to ensure accuracy and avoid misinterpretation.
We do not use:
- Satirical, gossip-based, or purely speculative sources
- AI-generated or manipulated content without clear disclosure
3. Editorial Review Process
All articles published on TheDailyStates.com go through an internal editorial review to ensure:
- Factual accuracy
- Clarity and context
- Neutral and unbiased tone
- Proper attribution of sources
4. Corrections and Updates
If we discover an error in our content β whether it’s a typo, misquote, or incorrect data β we take immediate action. Corrections are made transparently, and a note is added at the end of the article indicating the change.
Readers are encouraged to report any errors via email at corrections@thedailystates.com.
5. Handling Misinformation
We do not publish unverified claims or rumors. If a developing story is still unfolding, we clearly state that information is preliminary and subject to change.
Any content that later proves to be false will be updated or retracted as necessary, along with an explanation.
6. Independence and Neutrality
Our editorial team operates independently and does not accept any form of compensation or influence in exchange for favorable coverage. We ensure that news is covered objectively, regardless of political, corporate, or individual interests.
7. AI and Automation Policy
While we may use AI tools for grammar checks or translation, final content decisions are made by human editors. We do not rely on AI to generate unverified news stories.
