This Editorial Policy outlines the standards and principles that guide the content creation, publication, and maintenance processes for Fizz Films (fizzfilms.com). Our commitment is to provide our audience with content that is insightful, accurate, and trustworthy, upholding the highest standards of journalistic integrity and professional analysis. This policy applies to all content published on the Website, including news, reviews, analysis, and educational articles.

1. Accuracy and Fact-Checking

We are committed to publishing accurate information. All content, particularly news and factual claims, is subject to a rigorous fact-checking process before publication.

  • Sourcing: We strive to use primary sources whenever possible. When relying on secondary sources, we will cite them clearly and verify the information across multiple credible outlets.
  • Verification: Factual claims, statistics, and quotes are verified against reliable sources. If a claim cannot be verified, it will be attributed as an unconfirmed report or rumor.
  • Opinion vs. Fact: We maintain a clear distinction between factual reporting and editorial opinion or analysis. Opinion pieces will be clearly labeled as such.

2. Corrections and Updates

We believe in transparency and accountability. If an error is identified in a published article, we will correct it promptly and clearly.

  • Minor Corrections: Typographical errors or minor grammatical fixes may be made without a formal note.
  • Substantive Corrections: Any correction that changes the meaning or factual basis of an article will be noted with an editor’s note at the top or bottom of the article, detailing what was changed and when.
  • Updates: Articles may be updated to reflect new developments. These updates will be clearly marked with a date and a brief explanation of the new information.

  • Attribution: We will always give proper credit to the original creator or source of any material, including images, data, or direct quotes.
  • Fair Use: We adhere to fair use principles when incorporating external material, ensuring that our use is transformative and minimal.

4. Ethics and Independence

Our editorial content is created independently of our business operations, including advertising and affiliate partnerships.

  • Advertising: The presence of advertising (including Google AdSense) or sponsored content does not influence our editorial decisions.
  • Reviews: All reviews and analyses are based on the honest, independent judgment of the writer. If a product, service, or screening was provided for free, this will be disclosed within the article.
  • Affiliate Disclosure: Any article containing affiliate links will include a clear and conspicuous disclosure to the reader.
