When an article contains a substantive factual error (a wrong number, a misspelled name, an inaccurate date, a misattributed quote), we correct the copy and append a clear, dated correction note at the end of the piece. The note explains what was wrong and what the correct information is.

We don't remove the acknowledgment of the error once it's issued. The correction note stays as part of the record.

Sometimes reporting is technically accurate but missing context that materially changes how a reader would understand it. In those cases, we add a clarification rather than a correction. We update the language and note at the bottom of the story that context has been added post-publication, and what changed.

Clarifications are not used to quietly soften critical reporting after a subject complains. They're for genuine gaps in context that affect a reader's understanding of the facts.

If a story's central premise is wrong, if it relied on a source who fabricated information, or if we misunderstood the nature of what we were reporting on in a way that cannot be corrected, we retract it. The original content is replaced with a retraction statement signed by the Editor-in-Chief, explaining what happened and why the story no longer stands.

Retractions are rare. When they happen, they are treated as a significant editorial event, not an administrative footnote.

If you've spotted a mistake in one of our articles, email support@largern.com. We review all legitimate correction requests within one business day.

We treat correction requests as editorial work, not customer service tickets. If you provide solid evidence, we act on it. If we disagree that an error occurred, we'll explain why.
