Corrections Policy

How Tinsel Magazine handles corrections, clarifications, and retractions. Real quotes, sourced reporting, and transparent accountability when we make mistakes.

Tinsel Magazine is committed to accuracy in everything we publish — original reporting, interviews, profiles, criticism, and cultural analysis. When we make mistakes, we correct them promptly, transparently, and in a way that serves our readers.

Our Commitment

We hold ourselves to a high standard of factual accuracy. Every article undergoes editorial review before publication. Despite our best efforts, errors occasionally occur. When they do, we treat corrections not as embarrassments but as an essential part of earning and maintaining trust.

How We Handle Corrections

Factual errors: When we discover or are alerted to a factual error — a misstated name, date, title, attribution, or figure — we correct the text and append a dated correction notice at the bottom of the article describing what was changed and why.

Clarifications: When published language is accurate but potentially misleading, we add a clarification to provide additional context. These are noted at the bottom of the article.

Significant corrections: For errors that substantially affect the meaning or conclusions of an article — including misquotes that change a subject's position — we update the headline or summary as needed and place a prominent correction notice at the top of the article.

Retractions: In rare cases where the central premise of an article is found to be incorrect, we issue a full retraction with an explanation.

Quotes and Sources

Quotes published in Tinsel Magazine are real and sourced. We do not fabricate dialogue, composite characters, or invent vignettes. When we paraphrase, we say so. When a subject disputes how they were characterized, we engage seriously with the dispute and correct the record if warranted.

Timeliness

We aim to publish corrections as quickly as possible after an error is confirmed. Minor corrections are typically made within hours. More complex corrections that require additional reporting may take longer, but we prioritize speed over comfort.

Report an Error

If you believe you have found an error in our reporting, contact us at editorial@tinselmag.com. Include the article title, the specific error, and any supporting information. We review every report and respond to confirm the outcome.
