Our sourcing standard

Every intelligence item, layoff entry, and impact figure keeps a source link — public records, court filings, the organization's own statements, agency or association materials, or named-source reporting. We prefer government and policy-organization sources over news aggregation.

Projections are labeled as projections, estimates as estimates, and allegations as allegations. We distinguish confirmed counts from modeled figures (see the confidence labels on the Impact Tracker).

WARN Act layoff entries reflect public filings; where an organization disputes or updates a filing, we update the entry and note the change.

Editorial content is AI-assisted and human-curated, as disclosed in our Terms of Service. The sourcing standard applies regardless of how a draft was produced.

Request a correction

If we have published something inaccurate about your organization — or any factual error — email hello@fqhctalent.com with the page URL, the statement at issue, and the correct information (with a source if available). Corrections from named organizations are prioritized and typically reviewed within 2 business days.

How corrections are published

Material factual errors: we correct the page and add a dated editorial note describing what changed (see the update banners on time-sensitive articles).

Minor errors (typos, formatting, broken links): fixed silently.

Superseded facts: fast-moving stories (election counts, pending rulings) are updated in place with the new date; the original framing is preserved where it matters for the record.
