Editorial Policy

Spread the love

1. Our Mission MEGA9 TV is dedicated to delivering news that is fast, fair, and factual. Our editorial team operates independently of any political party or corporate influence.

2. Fact-Checking Policy We are human, but we strive for perfection.

  • Verification: Every breaking news item is cross-verified with at least two independent sources or official confirmations (Police/Government) before publishing.
  • Viral News: We have a special protocol for “WhatsApp Forwards.” We do not publish them unless our reporters on the ground verify the incident.

3. Correction Policy If we make a mistake, we own it.

  • Small Errors: Typographical errors are corrected immediately.
  • Factual Errors: If a story had a factual error, we update the story and add a “Correction Note” at the bottom explaining what was fixed and when.
  • Retraction: If a story is found to be entirely false, we delete it and issue an apology.

4. No-Hate Policy We strictly follow the Programme Code defined by the Ministry of Information & Broadcasting. We do not publish content that incites violence, promotes anti-national sentiment, or insults any religion or community.

5. AI Usage Disclosure While we use AI tools for spell-checking and sorting data, all our news articles are written, edited, and verified by human journalists. We do not publish AI-generated stories without human oversight.
