Complaints & Editorial Review

Shaker Global News Governance & Standards

Overview

Why this page exists

A clear path for readers and subjects to raise concerns.

Submitting a Concern

Shaker Global News welcomes good-faith concerns regarding factual accuracy, attribution, fairness, conflicts of interest, copyright, privacy, labeling, or other editorial matters.

A complaint should identify the article or material involved, explain the concern clearly, and provide supporting information when available.

Review Process

SGN will seek to review substantial editorial complaints within a reasonable period, taking into account the seriousness and complexity of the issue. Review may include checking source material, consulting relevant contributors, examining documents, or seeking additional information.

Submitting a complaint does not automatically establish that published material is inaccurate or unfair, and SGN retains editorial judgment regarding the appropriate response.

Possible Outcomes

Depending on the circumstances, SGN may take no action, provide an explanation, update an article, add clarification, correct a factual error, modify labeling, or in exceptional circumstances retract or remove material.

Where a significant correction is warranted, SGN seeks to make the correction proportionate and reasonably transparent.

Good-Faith Participation

SGN encourages respectful, specific, and evidence-based communication. Complaints intended primarily to intimidate, harass, suppress legitimate reporting, or overwhelm the editorial process may be handled accordingly.

Accuracy

Responsible verification.

Fairness

Context and reasonable opportunity for response.

Transparency

Open about process and relationships.

Accountability

Corrections and responsibility.

Public Service

Journalism serving readers and communities.
