Fact-Checking Policy

At Media Melts, we are committed to delivering accurate, reliable, and trustworthy content to our readers. In an era where misinformation can spread rapidly, our fact-checking policy is designed to uphold the highest standards of credibility and integrity across all our published materials.

Our fact-checking framework outlines the steps we take to ensure every piece of content we publish is thoroughly verified and evidence-based.


Source Verification

We rigorously cross-reference all facts, statements, quotes, and data presented in our articles with trustworthy sources. Primary sources and reputable secondary sources are prioritized to ensure maximum accuracy.


Multiple Source Confirmation

Whenever possible, we confirm key facts and breaking news through at least two independent and credible sources. This approach significantly reduces the risk of publishing incorrect or misleading information.


Expert Consultation

For topics involving technical, scientific, legal, or specialized knowledge, we seek input from subject matter experts to verify claims and ensure that complex issues are presented with clarity and precision.


Attribution of Sources

We believe in complete transparency and give proper credit to original sources. Clear attribution not only strengthens the credibility of our content but also empowers readers to verify information independently.


Correction Policy

If an error is discovered in any of our published content, we are committed to correcting it promptly and transparently. Corrections are clearly noted within the article, along with a brief explanation of the error and the updated information.


Transparency and Accountability

We hold our writers, editors, and contributors accountable for the accuracy of the content they produce. We encourage readers to report any inaccuracies, and we take such feedback seriously as part of our commitment to transparency.


Review and Fact-Checking Workflow

Before publication, all content undergoes a multi-stage editorial review. Editors fact-check the information against available sources and ensure that it meets our internal accuracy and quality benchmarks.


Avoidance of Speculation

We strictly avoid publishing speculative or unverified information. Unless confirmed by credible sources, rumors, assumptions, or anonymous claims will not be included in our content.


Corrections and Retractions

In cases where a major factual error has occurred, we will issue a formal correction or retraction as necessary. Our goal is to maintain the trust of our readers by acknowledging mistakes and addressing them transparently.


Continuous Improvement

We are continuously refining our fact-checking processes and keeping pace with evolving best practices in digital journalism, media ethics, and verification standards. Regular training and process evaluations help us ensure ongoing accuracy and reliability.
