Fact-Checking & Corrections Policy

1. Purpose and Principles

At 3 Narratives News (3N), every article begins with one rule: facts first, interpretation second.
We believe journalism in the 21 st century requires both human judgment and advanced technology. Our fact-checking process combines human editorial oversight with AI-assisted research to test the accuracy, fairness, and completeness of every published piece.

We follow the ethical codes of the Society of Professional Journalists (SPJ) and the Trust Project for Transparency.


2. Our Verification Process

  1. Source Verification – Every factual claim must be supported by at least two independent, reputable sources (official documents, academic papers, verified newswires, or direct eyewitness accounts).
  2. Primary Data First – Whenever possible, reporters and researchers review original datasets, court filings, legislation, or transcripts.
  3. AI-Assisted Research – ChatGPT (GPT-5) is used to surface, summarize, and cross-reference primary information; all findings are reviewed and confirmed by a human editor before publication.
  4. Cross-Narrative Review – Each article presents at least two credible narratives from opposing perspectives, followed by “The Silent Story” section exploring the human or systemic truth beneath both.
  5. Quote Validation – Direct quotations are verified against recordings, transcripts, or published statements.
  6. Date and Context Checks – We confirm timelines, image authenticity, and geographic details using open-source tools (e.g., Google Earth, InVID).

3. Use of Artificial Intelligence

AI tools assist our journalists by:

  • identifying contradictions or missing sources,
  • testing statistical claims for plausibility,
  • suggesting alternative angles for balance, and
  • drafting summaries for editorial review.

AI never publishes independently. All outputs are reviewed, edited, and approved by a human editor. Each article is the result of collaboration between <strong>Carlos Taylhardat and ChatGPT AI-assisted research</strong> under the supervision of our editorial standards team.

We view AI collaboration as a natural evolution of journalistic method — a way to improve accuracy and reduce human bias while retaining accountability.


4. Editorial Oversight and Accountability

  • All final publishing decisions are made by the Editor-in-Chief (human).
  • Every story undergoes a minimum two-step review: content verification and narrative balance assessment.
  • Controversial topics receive an additional editorial roundtable before publication.

5. Corrections Policy

  1. Transparency – When an error is identified, we correct it as quickly as possible and note the change at the bottom of the article.
  2. Correction Format – <em>Correction [Date]:</em> We stated [X]; it should have read [Y].
  3. Archival Integrity – The original error is never deleted from our records; it is logged in our public Corrections Log.
  4. Notification – Substantial corrections are announced via our official X (@3NarrativesNews) feed and newsletter.
  5. Reader Participation – Readers can report possible errors by emailing [email protected] with the subject “Correction.” Include the URL and supporting evidence.

6. Corrections Log (Latest Updates)

7. Attribution and Sourcing

  • We credit original reporting with clear citations and links.
  • Anonymous sources are used only when information is verified and the source’s safety is at risk.
  • AI outputs are never used as anonymous sources; they serve as research assistants and idea generators.

8. Conflict of Interest Policy

Reporters and editors must disclose any personal, financial, or political interest related to their coverage. Such stories undergo independent review before approval.


9. Reader Engagement and Right of Reply

We encourage subject-matter experts and readers to submit clarifications or counter-evidence. Substantive responses may be featured in follow-up articles or letters to the editor.
