Our purpose is to tell readers what happened, with the evidence to check it. A sourced fact is more useful than a dramatic claim.
Sources & accuracy
We prefer original documents, official records, court filings & company statements. Each story distinguishes fact, allegation & analysis, & names its sources on the page. Dates & jurisdictions are stated where they change the meaning of a finding.
A market price is the traders’ implied probability, never PollBet’s forecast. We do not tell readers where or how to trade.
Fairness & corrections
For material criticism, our standard is to seek a response from the party named & to publish substantive replies in full. A lack of response is not proof. Send corrections or additional evidence to contact@pollbet.com. Material changes receive a dated correction note; we do not silently rewrite a finding.
AI & human responsibility
AI supports research, drafting, fact-checking against the source, formatting & distribution. An editor approves every story before it is published. Barry Healy is responsible for editorial standards & corrections. AI output is never a source. Story images are generated illustrations: they show no real people & are never presented as documentary evidence.
Advertising
Advertising & sponsored stories are labelled clearly. Payment cannot buy favourable reporting, silence, altered findings or the removal of a story.
