Washington Post Mag understands that personal circumstances and public information can change. We review requests to update, correct, or remove published content when appropriate. We aim for fairness while preserving journalistic integrity and the public’s right to access accurate information.
Why someone may request a review:
• Incorrect information reported in a story
• Updated details change the original context
• Personal privacy concerns
• Safety concerns such as harassment or threats
• Content that may no longer serve public interest
Washington Post Mag will not remove content simply because it portrays an individual or organization unfavorably, but we always consider legitimate concerns.
To request a review, please provide:
• The headline of the article
• The published date
• The specific portion of content in question
• Explanation of concern or potential harm
• Supporting documentation, if available
Our editorial team evaluates requests using factors such as:
• Whether the reporting is still accurate
• Whether new information significantly changes relevance
• Whether private or sensitive personal details are involved
• Whether legal obligations exist
• Whether content holds continued public interest value
If errors are confirmed, we may update the article and include a correction note.
In privacy-related cases, specific details may be edited or partially redacted without altering essential reporting.
Article removal is approved only when a compelling ethical or legal basis exists. Requests without valid justification may be declined.
Legal takedown requirements, such as copyright orders, will follow applicable laws.
If you believe a story needs review, please contact us with complete details. We will respond once the evaluation process is finished.
