Fact-Checking Policy

At Magna Main Street, accuracy is non-negotiable. We understand the responsibility that comes with sharing financial and economic news that directly impacts people’s lives. Our editorial team is committed to upholding the highest standards of journalistic integrity through careful sourcing and rigorous fact-checking.

How We Ensure Accuracy

1. Sourcing Information

We use primary and official sources as the foundation for our articles, including:

  • Government agencies (e.g., IRS, SSA, HMRC, DWP)
  • Central banks (e.g., the Federal Reserve, Bank of England)
  • Recognized financial institutions and regulatory bodies
  • Peer-reviewed reports and data-backed research
  • Official press releases and public records

We avoid relying on speculative or anonymous sources unless necessary — and when we do, we disclose this clearly to the reader.

2. Editorial Review Process

All articles go through multiple rounds of review to verify facts, ensure context, and avoid misleading interpretations. Writers and editors collaborate to validate figures, quotes, and timelines, ensuring clarity and objectivity.

For technical or policy-specific topics, we may consult subject matter experts, financial professionals, or legal analysts to further support our accuracy standards.

3. Ongoing Monitoring and Updates

We recognize that financial regulations, government benefits, and economic indicators are dynamic and subject to change. Our team periodically revisits and updates older articles to ensure they remain relevant and accurate, especially when new data or announcements are released.

Each article includes a last updated date so readers can assess the timeliness of the information.

4. Corrections and Transparency

If we discover a factual error or receive credible feedback pointing out an inaccuracy, we take immediate action to:

  • Correct the error
  • Add an editorial note or correction tag where appropriate
  • Inform readers of the change, when necessary

We welcome reader feedback and encourage users to contact us if they spot any inconsistencies.

At Magna Main Street, your trust is our priority. We do not take lightly the responsibility of covering sensitive and impactful topics like public benefits, tax policies, and financial security. Every article is created with the intention of educating, informing, and empowering — not misleading.

We hold ourselves accountable so you can make informed decisions, confidently and responsibly.
