1 Minute Signal aims to be accurate, fair, and transparent. When we make a meaningful error, we correct it promptly and explain the change on the article where the error appeared.
We welcome specific, evidence-based correction requests from readers, sources, creators, companies, and subject-matter experts. We review every credible request, but editorial decisions about whether and how to revise an article remain with 1 Minute Signal.
1. How to Request a Correction
Email [email protected] with the subject line Correction Request: [article title or URL].
Please include:
- The URL of the affected article
- The exact passage, claim, figure, quotation, or attribution you believe is incorrect
- A concise explanation of the potential error
- The accurate information you believe should replace or clarify it
- Supporting evidence, preferably from a primary or authoritative source
- Your name and any relevant affiliation or expertise
Links to supporting material are especially helpful. If the concern involves a source video, podcast, transcript, paper, filing, dataset, or technical document, please identify the relevant timestamp, page, section, or passage when possible.
Submitting a correction does not mean your identity will be published. We do not ordinarily publish the identity or contact information of a person who reports an error unless permission is provided or disclosure is necessary to explain the correction accurately.
2. What We Treat as a Correction
A correction addresses an error or materially misleading statement that existed when the article was published. Examples include:
- An incorrect name, date, figure, calculation, technical detail, or description
- A quotation or paraphrase that inaccurately represents the source
- A claim attributed to the wrong person, company, publication, or study
- A citation that does not support the claim for which it was used
- Reliance on a source that is materially unreliable, inauthentic, or misrepresented
- Wording that may be technically accurate in isolation but creates a materially false or misleading impression in context
- Analysis based on a significant factual error
- Failure to label a material claim as opinion, inference, prediction, speculation, or disputed information
Not every disagreement is an error. Our analysis may include judgments, interpretations, counterarguments, and reasonable inferences from available evidence. We will consider challenges to those conclusions, but we do not revise an article solely because a reader, source, company, or subject disagrees with its framing or conclusions.
3. How We Handle Corrections
We assess correction requests against the available evidence and seek the most authoritative sources reasonably available. Depending on the issue, we may review the original source material, consult additional primary or independent sources, recalculate figures, or seek clarification from relevant parties.
When a substantive correction is warranted, we will:
- Correct the article itself so readers receive the most accurate current version
- Add a clearly labeled, dated correction note explaining what was wrong and what changed
- Revise any analysis or conclusion materially affected by the error
- Update related metadata, captions, links, or references when appropriate
Correction notes are written to provide meaningful context, not merely to state that an article was “updated.”
Minor spelling, grammar, punctuation, formatting, style, or broken-link repairs may be made without a correction note when they do not change the article’s meaning. We may also clarify wording without a note when the revision does not correct a factual error or materially alter the reader’s understanding.
4. Source Claims and Our Reporting
Signal pages often analyze claims made in a selected video, interview, podcast, presentation, or other source. Accurately reporting that a source made a claim is different from asserting that the claim is true.
If we inaccurately describe, quote, paraphrase, characterize, or evaluate a source, that is our error and we will correct it.
If our article accurately reports a claim made by the source but the underlying claim is false, incomplete, or later disproven, we may update the article to add context, stronger evidence, or a clearer assessment. Whether that change is labeled a correction or an update depends on whether 1 Minute Signal’s original presentation was inaccurate or materially misleading.
We do not transfer responsibility for our own errors to a source, an AI system, or a third-party publication.
5. Updates, Clarifications, and Corrections
An update adds material information that became available after publication, such as a product release, changed role, revised dataset, delayed launch, regulatory action, or study retraction.
A clarification improves precision or resolves a reasonable ambiguity without changing the underlying facts.
A correction fixes information that was wrong or materially misleading at the time of publication.
We may label a change as both an update and a correction when new evidence reveals that the original article contained a substantive error. If a change materially alters an article’s central conclusion, we will explain that change prominently.
6. Retractions, Withdrawals, and Article Removal
We generally correct articles in place so the public record remains available and readers can understand what changed.
In rare cases, we may withdraw or substantially replace an article when:
- Its central premise depends on false, fabricated, manipulated, or fundamentally unreliable material
- Errors are so extensive that correction in place would leave the article misleading
- Continued publication would violate law, privacy, safety, or intellectual-property rights
- The article was published prematurely or without the editorial authorization required by our process
When feasible and appropriate, the original URL will remain available with an explanation of the withdrawal or replacement. We do not remove accurate coverage merely because it is unfavorable, inconvenient, or later disputed.
Copyright complaints should be submitted through our Copyright and DMCA Notices policy, not through the corrections process.
7. Challenges to Analysis and Editorial Decisions
We welcome evidence that challenges our analysis. Strong new evidence may justify an update, clarification, correction, or follow-up article even when the original article was reasonable based on the information available at the time.
We do not promise changes in response to:
- Disagreement with a supported editorial judgment or conclusion
- Requests to remove accurate but unfavorable information
- Objections based solely on tone, emphasis, or the inclusion of relevant criticism
- Demands to adopt a source’s preferred language when our wording is accurate and fair
- Claims that cannot be evaluated because the supporting evidence is unavailable or unverifiable
Sponsored relationships, advertising relationships, legal threats, public pressure, and private influence do not determine our correction decisions.
