The Calgary Claritive

Calgary Claritive maintains rigorous standards for accuracy in all its reporting. Our editorial processes integrate multiple checks to ensure the information we publish is factual and precise. Despite these efforts, occasional errors may occur.

When inaccuracies are identified, whether by our editorial team or reported by our readers, we are committed to promptly correcting them. Transparency and accuracy are fundamental principles guiding our journalism.

Reporting an Error

Readers who identify a potential error in our published content are encouraged to contact us directly. We value feedback that helps us maintain the highest level of accuracy.

All reports of errors should be sent via email to legal@claritive.ca. Please include the URL of the article in question and a detailed description of the perceived inaccuracy.

Our legal and editorial teams review all such communications. We initiate a verification process to assess the accuracy of the original reporting against the information provided.

Types of Corrections

Calgary Claritive differentiates between various types of revisions to our published articles. Each type reflects a distinct need for accuracy or clarity.

Factual Errors

A factual error involves a direct misstatement of information. This could include incorrect names, dates, locations, figures, or the misrepresentation of events. When such errors are confirmed, the original article will be amended to reflect the correct information.

A correction notice will be prominently displayed within the article. This notice will explain what was changed and when the correction was made. This ensures full transparency for our readers.

Clarifications

A clarification is issued when an article, while factually correct, may be misleading, ambiguous, or lacks necessary context. This type of revision aims to enhance reader understanding without altering core facts.

Clarifications might involve adding further details, rephrasing confusing sentences, or expanding on certain points to provide a more complete picture. As with factual errors, a notice will indicate that a clarification has been applied.

Updates

Updates occur when new information becomes available after an article's initial publication. These updates are distinct from corrections as they do not address original inaccuracies.

Instead, they provide readers with the latest developments on an ongoing story or topic. Updates are typically appended to the end of an article or integrated into the text with an accompanying editor's note.

Our Commitment to Transparency

Calgary Claritive operates with a commitment to open and honest communication regarding our content. Our correction policy is a cornerstone of this commitment.

We believe that acknowledging and correcting errors openly fosters trust with our readership. This practice underpins the integrity of our journalism and our role as a reliable news source for Calgary.

This page will serve as a public record of significant corrections and clarifications made to our articles. Each entry will specify the article, the change made, and the date of the revision, ensuring full accountability.

Our journalists are dedicated to providing accurate and fair reporting. The corrections process is an essential part of maintaining those high standards for the community of Calgary.
