Corrections Policy & Public Errata

Intellectual honesty requires public accountability when errors occur. We correct factual mistakes rapidly, prominently, and without evasive rhetoric.

Our Correction Commitment

No article on JohnTabin.com is ever silently amended to erase an error. If an analysis contains a factual inaccuracy regarding a statistic, legal statute, official quotation, or historical date, our editorial protocol requires:

  • Inline Correction Box: A bold notice appended to the top of the article clearly detailing what was incorrect, the verified correct fact, and the exact timestamp of correction.
  • 24-Hour Review: All verified correction submissions are vetted against primary sources and resolved within 24 hours of notification.
  • Substantive Errata Log: Major analytical revisions are documented permanently in this central repository.

Clarifications vs. Corrections

We distinguish between two categories of post-publication adjustments:

  • Correction: Remedying an objective factual mistake (e.g., incorrect legislative vote tally, inaccurate agency nomenclature, erroneous financial figure).
  • Clarification / Update: Adding newly declassified intelligence, subsequent regulatory rulings, or clarifying language where an originally accurate passage was susceptible to misinterpretation.
