Corrections and clarifications are essential for maintaining editorial integrity and trust in journalism. In this article, we provide a transparent overview of recent amendments made to our published content, ensuring our readers have the most accurate information available.
Why Corrections Matter
Accuracy is the cornerstone of credible journalism. When errors occur, we promptly issue corrections to uphold our commitment to truthfulness. This practice not only informs readers but also strengthens the relationship between the publication and its audience.

Our editorial team reviews all complaints and correction requests diligently. Whether it's a factual error, a misquote, or a misattribution, we take every correction seriously and publish updates in a timely manner.
Recent Amendments in Our Coverage
Here are some of the recent corrections and clarifications we've made:
- Medical terminology correction: An article on forever chemicals incorrectly used “irritable bowel disease” instead of “inflammatory bowel disease.” We have corrected this to reflect the proper medical term.
- FIFA World Cup commercialisation: A report stated that FIFA's 25-page slide deck made no mention of the women's game, but it actually contained one reference. We have updated the article to acknowledge this.
- Other corrections: We have also amended articles on the English FA's support for Gianni Infantino, Italy's Schengen suspension with Spain, supermarket chicken labeling, and more.
How We Handle Corrections
When a correction is necessary, we follow a strict protocol. Our editorial team verifies the error, drafts a correction notice, and updates the original article with a clear note. Readers can also submit correction requests via email or postal mail.
We encourage our audience to report any inaccuracies they encounter. Your vigilance helps us maintain the highest standards of journalism.
