At Taaza-time.com, we are dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of accuracy and integrity in all of our content. We undertake rigorous measures to ensure the veracity of the information we provide. Here’s how we uphold our commitment to accuracy:
- Scepticism and Inquiry: We approach all claims with scepticism, question assumptions, and challenge conventional wisdom to verify the accuracy of the information.
- Due Accuracy Commitment: Accuracy is fundamental to our reputation and the trust of our audience. We ensure that the accuracy of our content is adequate and appropriate, considering the subject and nature of the information.
- Well-Sourced and Evidence-Based: All our content is well-sourced, based on available evidence, and corroborated. We are transparent about what we know and avoid unfounded speculation.
- Plagiarism and Distortion: Our journalists never plagiarize or distort facts or context, including visual information knowingly.
- Independent Verification: We seek independent verification from reliable sources, especially for claims made by public officials or individuals with agendas beyond truth-telling. Unverifiable claims are attributed accordingly.
- Accountability for Accuracy: We stand by the accuracy of the information we publish. If proven otherwise, we promptly correct errors and strive to maintain transparency with our audience.
- Correction Policies: We provide a fair opportunity for the public to report inaccuracies or errors via the ‘Suggest A Correction’ section at the end of each web-story.
- Editorial Oversight: Our journalists’ primary responsibility includes reporting, writing, and fact-checking stories. Stories undergo review by one or more editors, with a multi-level fact-checking structure for thoroughness.
