Get in touch with our editorial team
Have a correction, a source question, or feedback on how we explained a story? Here is the short version of how to reach us, and the longer version of what happens after you do.
The short answer
Write to [email protected] or call +1 (303) 555-0155. That covers corrections, questions about a specific explainer, and general feedback on the site. We read everything that comes in through those two channels, and a real person replies — we do not run an automated queue for reader mail.
If your message concerns a factual error in a specific piece, include the page title or URL and the sentence in question. That single detail is usually the difference between a correction posted the same week and one that takes longer because we have to track down which page you mean.
What happens after you write in
Corrections are reviewed against original sources before anything changes on the page. If we agree an error was made, we fix it and note the correction at the bottom of the piece with a date, rather than quietly editing the text. If we disagree, we will explain our sourcing and reasoning in our reply, even if that reply simply confirms our original wording stands.
General feedback — on tone, on which topics we should add, on whether a particular layered explainer struck the right balance between the short answer and the detail — gets read by the person who edits that section. We cannot promise every message shapes a future page, but every message is read by someone who has editorial say over the site, not a general inbox handler.
What we cannot help with
We are not able to comment on or investigate stories we have not covered, and we do not provide personalized guidance on how to interpret a specific breaking story in real time — our explainers are written after enough reporting has settled to give useful context, not during the first hour of a fast-moving event.
We also do not handle inquiries related to any other organization's news operations, including any broadcaster's newsroom decisions, staffing, or editorial policy. Questions about how a particular outlet labels its fox news opinion versus its fox news articles, for instance, are best directed to that outlet directly. Our role is explaining news literacy generally, using real examples, not speaking on behalf of any newsroom.
Mailing address and hours
Our mailing address is 71 Cedar Avenue, Denver, CO 80115, United States. We are a small editorial operation, and mail sent here reaches the same team that answers [email protected], so email is usually faster for time-sensitive corrections.
We read and respond to messages on regular business days. A specific, well-documented correction request is typically the fastest kind of message to resolve, since it requires the least back-and-forth to confirm what you are referring to and what the original source actually said.
