Corrections and withdrawals

How to report a mistake, and what we do when a story is wrong.

If a Globe And Street story is wrong, tell us. We correct confirmed mistakes and withdraw stories that should not have been published.

Report a mistake

What to include

  • The address (URL) of the story.
  • The sentence or number that is wrong, and what it should say.
  • A link to a report that shows the right fact, if you have one.
  • An email address, so we can ask a question if we need to.

What we do with your report

  1. We compare the story with the report it was written from, and with any evidence you send.
  2. If the story does not match its report, we fix it. The story then shows when it was last updated.
  3. If the report itself is wrong or changed, we say so in the story, or withdraw the story if it can no longer be relied on.
  4. If the story is right, we leave it as it is.

Publishers

If you published a report that one of our stories was written from and you want us to remove the story, tell us through the same form and name the story. We withdraw it.
