Corrections Policy

US Economy Brief keeps a visible corrections path because stale policy timing, route errors, or source mistakes can change the reader decision.

What Counts As A Correction

  • A policy claim, date, source summary, or affected-group description is wrong
  • A page now routes readers to a broken or misleading destination
  • A visible uncertainty note is missing even though the official record is still incomplete

What Counts As A Clarification Or Refresh

  • A page needs clearer timing language even when the factual record is not fully wrong
  • A policy page should be refreshed when the downstream impact changed enough to alter the reader decision

What To Send

  • Send the page URL, the affected statement, and the primary source or release that changed.
  • Flag whether the issue affects timeline, interpretation, or impact on readers.
  • Material factual fixes should be acknowledged and reflected publicly when confirmed.

Response Target

We aim to acknowledge factual correction requests within 3 business days.

How Material Updates Appear

When a correction changes the meaning of the briefing, the update should be visible on-page rather than hidden in a silent edit.

These pages are drafted with AI assistance and published by the US Economy Brief Editorial Team. We do not claim that a person re-checks every page before it is published.

How to report a correction

Use our Contact page. Send the exact page URL, the statement that looks wrong, and the source that shows it. That is usually enough for us to act.

We aim to acknowledge factual correction requests within three business days. If a briefing cannot be fixed, we withdraw it rather than leave it up.
