Corrections

We get things wrong sometimes. When we do, we fix it in the open — and this page is the open.

The policy

  • Substantive errors get corrected visibly. A dated correction line goes at the top of the corrected article saying what was wrong and what changed — we don't quietly rewrite history. The correction is also logged in the archive below, permanently.
  • Typos and formatting slips we just fix, without ceremony. If a fix changes the meaning of a sentence, it's not a typo — it's a correction, and it's handled as one.
  • Anyone can flag an error. Email [email protected]. A real person reads it, checks it against the sourcing, and answers. You don't need to be the subject of the story.
  • The Wire links out — headlines in the feed belong to the newsrooms that reported them. If a linked headline is wrong, that's the original publisher's to correct; if our excerpt or framing introduced an error, that's ours, and we'll correct it here.

The archive

No corrections yet. The Stare began publishing original stories in June 2026; every substantive correction from that date forward will appear here, permanently. An empty archive is not a claim of perfection — it's a promise about what happens when perfection fails.
