At DA0NE, we believe that facts are the foundation of trust. Our editorial mission is driven by the pursuit of truth, and we are committed to rigorous and transparent fact-checking practices. This Fact-Checking Policy outlines how we verify the accuracy of our reporting and maintain the highest standards of journalism.
1. Commitment to Accuracy
We strive to ensure that all factual claims in our articles, headlines, captions, graphics, and videos are accurate, complete, and up-to-date.
Before publication:
- Every article undergoes a multi-level editorial review
- Factual assertions are backed by credible primary or secondary sources
- Claims are cross-referenced with official data, peer-reviewed research, or verified news outlets
2. Trusted Sources
Our reporting relies on:
- Official government publications and agencies (e.g., U.S. Census Bureau, SEC, WHO)
- Academic research and expert whitepapers
- Reputable news organizations
- Verified data platforms and databases
- On-the-record interviews with subject matter experts
We avoid using anonymous sources unless critical to public interest and only after verification.
3. Use of Technology
We use AI-driven tools and open-source intelligence (OSINT) when appropriate to:
- Authenticate images and videos
- Track digital disinformation
- Verify claims circulating on social media
All tools are used in conjunction with human editorial judgment.
4. Corrections & Clarifications
If a factual error is identified after publication:
- The content is promptly updated
- A correction note is clearly displayed
- All changes are logged in our editorial correction system
(See our Corrections Policy for more details.)
5. Transparency
We are transparent about:
- Our sources and references
