Fact checking, better


You might have noticed that at the bottom of every story at DailyFreeman.com there is now a "Fact Check" box that leads to a form asking readers to tell us if they find an error in our reporting.

It asks for ways that we could have improved the story, or other sources we should contact on the topic. It also gives readers an optional opportunity to provide their own contact information to be a source on the topic in the future.
We are also adding this blog as a way to have all corrections collected in one place on the web.
We'll be using this blog to publicize corrections to stories, to explain, if possible, how we made a particular mistake and to give you a better window into our reporting process.
We will also take some Fact Check reports that we could not confirm or feel were not valid and explain how we came to that conclusion and chose not to make a correction.
If you have any questions about this process, we'd love to talk to you.
You can reach us at news@freemanonline.com.
