The Official Buzz Magazine Corrections Policy explains how readers, sources, and article subjects can report possible errors and how we review, correct, and update published information.
Our goal is to correct material inaccuracies clearly while preserving an accurate record of our published coverage.
How to Report an Error
Correction requests can be submitted through our Contact Us page.
Information to Include
Please provide:
- The complete URL of the article
- The exact sentence or claim you believe is incorrect
- An explanation of the problem
- The information you believe is accurate
- A reliable source supporting the requested correction
- Your name and connection to the matter, when relevant
Clear supporting evidence helps us review a request accurately and efficiently.
How We Review Correction Requests
Receiving a correction request does not automatically mean that an article will be changed or removed.
We review the disputed information and compare it with available official records, direct statements, reputable reporting, and other relevant evidence.
Evidence Review
The strength of a correction request depends on the quality of the supporting evidence. An official record or direct statement generally carries more weight than an anonymous post or another unsourced biography page.
We may also review archived versions of the article and the sources used when it was originally published.
Requests From Article Subjects
We take information supplied by an article subject or authorized representative seriously. However, we may still request documentation when a proposed change concerns a public record or contradicts reliable published evidence.
A personal preference about how accurate public information appears is different from a factual error.
Material Corrections
A material error changes the reader’s understanding of the person, event, or central answer.
Examples may include:
- Incorrect identity
- Incorrect family or relationship information
- A false death report
- A significant error in a date or timeline
- An incorrect legal status or outcome
- A financial figure presented with the wrong meaning
- A quotation attributed to the wrong person
- A claim contradicted by stronger evidence
How Material Corrections Are Displayed
When appropriate, we correct the inaccurate information and add a visible note explaining what changed.
A correction note may identify the earlier error, provide the corrected information, and include the date of the update.
We do not silently preserve information that reliable evidence has shown to be materially false.
Minor Corrections and Editorial Updates
Not every edit requires a formal correction notice.
Minor Changes
We may correct spelling, punctuation, grammar, formatting, broken links, and minor wording without adding a correction note when the change does not alter the article’s meaning.
Clarifications
A clarification may be added when the original information was not necessarily false but could give readers an incomplete or misleading impression.
Clarifications should improve context without hiding the original issue.
Routine Updates
Articles may be updated when relationships, careers, court cases, contracts, businesses, or public records change after publication.
A new development does not necessarily mean the original article was incorrect at the time it was written.
Developing Stories
Breaking and developing stories can change quickly. Early reports may contain incomplete information, and official confirmation may arrive later.
When reliable new evidence changes a central fact, we update the article and use a correction or update note when appropriate.
Death, health, criminal, and legal stories receive particular care because inaccurate reporting can cause substantial harm.
Removal and Privacy Requests
We do not automatically remove accurate, relevant, and lawfully published information because it is inconvenient or unwanted.
However, we review requests involving:
- Mistaken identity
- Unsupported allegations
- Personal safety
- Private contact information
- Information about minors
- Legally valid removal obligations
- Content that no longer serves a reasonable public interest
Possible Outcomes
Depending on the evidence and circumstances, we may correct, clarify, update, anonymize, limit, or remove information.
Each request is considered individually. Submitting a request does not guarantee a particular outcome.
Source and Link Corrections
A source link may stop working or move to a new location. When possible, we replace broken links with an archived copy or another authoritative source supporting the same claim.
If the original evidence no longer supports the article, we reassess the affected statement instead of simply removing the link.
