Fact-Checking Policy
We are aggressive in our fact checking and sourcing, and go to great lengths to present correct, accurate information in a timely manner.
We regularly communicate with the U.S. Department of Defense; the military branches’ public affairs offices (PAOs); base, unit, fleet and other PAOs; our own sources; other news agencies; subject matter experts and more, to ensure accuracy of reporting.
We ensure that any statements treated as facts are based on real, verifiable information that can be traced back to at least two, if not several, sources.
All original scoops by other news agencies, photos and other information on American Military News are properly sourced, attributed and cited, once they have been verified.
