When the public record changes or we get something wrong, we update the story and note the change. Accuracy is not negotiable and corrections are not buried.
How we handle errors
When a factual error is confirmed, we correct it promptly. Corrections are not silently overwritten — the updated story carries a dated correction note so readers understand what changed and when.
Substantive corrections (wrong date, wrong charge, wrong outcome) are labeled with the date corrected and a brief description of what changed.
Minor editorial fixes (typos, formatting) may be corrected without a formal note at editorial discretion.
We do not scrub or rewrite a story's history to conceal an earlier error — the record of what changed stays visible.
How to request a correction or removal
If you believe a published story contains a factual error, or if you are a subject of a story and have documentation that changes the public record, contact us at corrections@aftertheclip.com.
Include the URL of the story page and the specific statement you believe is wrong or outdated.
Attach or link to the source material — a court filing, official statement, or published record — that supports the correction.
Requests are reviewed against the public record. Corrections that improve the source trail are made promptly; requests that are not supported by documentation are held until documentation is provided.
We do not accept payment to remove or alter accurate public-record reporting.
Story updates as cases develop
Many AfterTheClip stories cover matters that are still moving through courts, investigations, or public proceedings. We treat those stories as living documents.
When charges are filed, upgraded, or dropped, we update the story to reflect the new public record.
When a case reaches a verdict, plea, or dismissal, that outcome replaces interim language and is dated.
When new official statements, agency releases, or court documents materially change the picture, we integrate them.
If you have documentation of a case development that is not yet reflected on a story page, send it to corrections@aftertheclip.com.
