Editorial Policy

Pelican Newspaper publishes general breaking news and explainers with an emphasis on clarity, speed, and accuracy. We aim to report what is confirmed, clearly separate verified facts from early reports, and update stories as new information becomes available.

Sources and verification

We prioritize primary sources whenever possible, including official statements, public records, court documents, company filings, and direct announcements. When using secondary reporting, we cross-check key claims across multiple reputable outlets. We avoid relying on anonymous social media posts as sole evidence; user-generated content may be referenced only when it can be corroborated.

Corrections and updates

If we discover an error, we correct it promptly. Material corrections are noted in the article with a brief explanation of what changed. Developing stories may receive updates as facts emerge; we make reasonable efforts to time-stamp significant updates.

Editing process

Articles are reviewed for factual consistency, clear attribution, and neutral language. Headlines are written to reflect the substance of the article and avoid misleading framing. Opinionated or speculative language is removed unless clearly labeled and supported.
