Editorial policy

Lively News Spotlight aims to make its explanations accurate, fair and clear about their limits. We distinguish editorial judgment from paid material and welcome specific corrections.

Accuracy and context

We check factual statements against suitable source material, preserve relevant context and avoid making a claim sound stronger than its support allows. When information is incomplete or disputed, we say so. Our articles are explanations for general readers, not a substitute for checking an original document or report when that matters.

Independence and partnerships

Editorial decisions remain separate from commercial collaborations. Any paid, sponsored or partner material is identified clearly where it appears; a partnership does not guarantee favourable coverage or editorial approval.

Corrections

If you spot a factual error or a misleading omission, contact us with the article and the detail in question. We review specific, verifiable concerns and correct published material when warranted, making the change clear where appropriate.

Images and illustrations

Images should support the subject without misleading readers about what happened. Some illustrations may be AI-generated; where that is relevant, we identify them as illustrations rather than documentary evidence.
