Information Press welcomes useful feedback from readers, knowledgeable sources, researchers, public agencies, companies, and potential partners. Feedback can help clarify California news, identify outdated information, report factual mistakes, draw attention to coverage gaps, and improve the accessibility of published articles. This page explains what information is useful and where to send different kinds of messages.
Information Press is a California-focused digital news publication covering government, housing, transportation, business, finance, climate, healthcare, education, technology, and consumer affairs. We consider relevant submissions according to their factual support and editorial value. An email does not guarantee a reply, publication, correction, interview, or partnership.
Report an Error or a Reader-Experience Problem
Reporting a Factual Error
For a suspected error, email corrections@informationpress.net . Please include the relevant article URL; the exact sentence, figure, quotation, description, or date believed incorrect; a brief explanation; and reliable supporting evidence where available. Include an email address where we can request clarification if needed. Identifying the exact wording helps distinguish a factual inaccuracy from a broken link, a presentation problem, or a request for additional explanation. Evidence is more useful when it addresses the particular statement being challenged.
A public record, government notice, official dataset, original document, source statement, or other credible reference can help verify a concern. If a law, price, insurance term, or public policy changed after publication, please explain the effective date so that an update is not confused with a mistake in the original reporting.
Verified material factual errors should be corrected as promptly as reasonably possible. A significant correction may require an explanatory note. Where wording is ambiguous but not directly false, a clarification may be more appropriate. Routine spelling or formatting changes may not require an individual note. Information Press assesses requests on their evidence, not on whether a source finds the coverage unfavorable. See the Corrections Policy .
Accessibility, Clarity, and Reader Experience
Information Press welcomes reports of broken links, pages that fail to load, confusing navigation, inaccessible charts or tables, inadequate alternative text, unreadable layouts, misleading image captions, and other issues that make reporting harder to understand. The article URL, browser or device information, and a short description of the problem may help identify a technical issue.
Feedback about editorial language is also relevant. Readers may flag ambiguous terminology, unsupported generalizations, geographic inaccuracies, unnecessary stereotypes, or language that creates misleading certainty about a complex health, financial, legal, or safety topic. Such reports should specify the passage and why a different phrasing may better reflect the facts.
Not every suggested design, accessibility feature, or wording change can be implemented immediately. The publication should nonetheless evaluate material obstacles to reader understanding and factual clarity in a proportionate way.
Contribute Reporting Leads, Evidence, and Expertise
- Suggesting a Story or Reporting Lead
-
Send story suggestions to earthday@informationpress.net . A useful proposal identifies the main question, the affected California community or relevant national audience, what may have changed, why the issue matters, and what verifiable sources are available. A suggestion should distinguish original documents and firsthand observations from promotional descriptions or secondhand claims. Relevance to California readers is an important part of explaining why the subject merits attention.
Where appropriate, provide names of relevant agencies, public notices, original documents, datasets, dates, and links to records rather than screenshots without context. A concise explanation of what remains unanswered is often more helpful than a lengthy promotional summary. If the suggestion concerns an allegation, distinguish what is documented from what is uncertain.
Please identify any material commercial or personal relationship you have with the subject. A business can supply new product terms, consumer notices, or a correction, but it cannot purchase favorable reporting by submitting those materials. News tips are evaluated against public interest, timeliness, relevance, evidence, and the site's established editorial scope.
- Source Recommendations and Research Materials
-
Government data, public records, academic research, regulatory filings, organization statements, and direct attributable information can be useful for independent reporting. Readers can recommend links, research methods, relevant definitions, or more current source material to help us evaluate an existing article or a possible new subject.
The source's origin and limitations matter. A company report may offer factual details but may also reflect the organization's interests. A third-party news article may point to a primary record without independently confirming every assertion in that record. Information Press may review submissions for authenticity, date, scope, and relevance before using them.
A source recommendation is not an agreement to treat the sender anonymously. Information Press rarely uses unnamed sources and requires a justified public-interest reason and additional verification for confidential sourcing. Standard email is not a guaranteed secure channel for highly sensitive documents. See the Unnamed Sources Policy .
- Expert Comments and Technical Clarifications
-
Researchers, academics, practitioners, and people with relevant specialized knowledge may suggest factual corrections, explain technical limitations, identify methodological problems, or recommend original research. Such input can be useful for housing, government policy, climate, healthcare, education, insurance, finance, and technology coverage.
Contributors should explain their relevant expertise and affiliation, the precise information being challenged or supplemented, and material interests that might influence the input. Being an expert in one area does not establish authority over unrelated subjects. Editorial reviewers should assess evidence independently rather than accept a claim solely on the basis of a professional title.
Information Press does not promise that an expert submission will be quoted, published, or incorporated into a future article. We do not invent credentials, affiliations, interviews, or statements. The publisher is responsible for deciding what meets its verification and editorial standards.
Commercial and Partnership Inquiries
Advertising, Commercial Labels, and Sponsored Content Concerns
Email advertising@informationpress.net with questions or concerns about display advertisements, potentially misleading commercial claims, unclear ad labels, or the separation between advertising and editorial material. Include the page URL, approximate date, and enough detail to identify the advertisement or issue. Sending an inquiry does not establish that a commercial format, sponsorship arrangement, or collaboration opportunity is available. Editorial judgments remain independent of the sender's business interests.
Information Press uses Google AdSense for display advertising. Where third-party ads are served, the advertising provider's systems and reporting controls may also be relevant. Information Press does not claim that it independently approves every individual programmatic advertisement before it appears.
Information Press does not currently publish paid sponsored articles, advertorials, or affiliate-linked recommendations. Commercial relationships do not determine independent editorial conclusions, and paid visibility does not determine editorial ranking position. The Advertise With Us and Sponsored Content Policy explain these boundaries.
Partnerships, Media Relations, and Content Licensing
For inquiries concerning research collaborations, data partnerships, expert information projects, events, media cooperation, content reuse, or syndication, contact partnerships@informationpress.net . Useful proposals identify the organization, intended activity, expected audience, relevant materials, planned responsibilities, and any financial or commercial component.
Submitting a proposal does not create a partnership, authorize republication, provide access to editorial decisions, or guarantee a positive response. Any future collaboration involving published content should disclose material commercial involvement where relevant and preserve the independence of Information Press's factual assessments.
Questions about whether an external reference accurately describes the historical Information Press name may also be raised through the general contact. Historical references must not be used to imply an ongoing partnership or endorsement of the 2026 digital project without evidence.
