EDITORIAL STANDARDS

Editorial standards are at the core of Music Times reporting philosophy. Music Times is committed to treating its readers fairly and giving them the best possible information on the music news we cover – or the best we can learn about it, with our reporters and editors performing a high level of due diligence on the credibility of our sources. The same due diligence is applied when reporting on music news that originates on social media.

We believe in providing the opportunity for full and fair comment for all parties involved in an article, and having a neutral tone in our published work. There is no agenda for us, other than an unwavering commitment to seeking, and reporting, the truth.

CORRECTIONS POLICY

When we make mistakes, it is our policy to correct our errors, large and small, as soon as we become aware of them — in text, picture captions and videos. Music Times takes complaints about editorial content seriously. If we ever need to update a story with new information, we'll make that clear with precise time stamps. If we need to make a substantive change to a story if something new comes to light, we'll be honest about why that happened and explain ourselves in a clearly labeled and dated note.

If you believe a story we have published is inaccurate, please contact the editorial team. You can email:
corrections@musictimes.com

GENERATIVE AI POLICY

Currently, Music Times does not use or employ generative AI tools of any kind in the writing, research, editing, or any other integral aspects of the publishing process. Likewise, Music Times will refrain from publishing AI-generated images, whether they be video or still pictures, that closely resemble real-life, unless an AI-generated image is itself the focus of a news story on its use or creation.
