ABOUT THIS SERVICE

Help with stories on Australian news sites.

Australia has no "right to be forgotten", so an old story can follow you for years. But most big newspapers follow Press Council standards on accuracy and fairness, and broadcasters answer to ACMA. We use those routes, and the editor's own process, to get unfair stories fixed.

Our rule

We only ask for changes to stories that are false, outdated, unfair, or invade your privacy. We never threaten journalists, and we never try to hide fair reporting on public matters.

WHY IT MATTERS

Why fixing an Australian news story matters.

Local news travels fast in Australian towns and online. A wrong story can hurt a small business within days.

Less bad news in search

A corrected or updated story stops leading with a mistake when people search for you.

Protects your business

Customers, landlords, and suppliers read local news. A fair story keeps them with you.

Rebuilds trust

Partners and staff deserve the full picture. A fixed story helps mend those relationships.

Lower money and legal risk

False claims can cost deals and lead to disputes. Fixing them early lowers that risk.

OUR AUSTRALIAN NEWS SERVICES

How we help with Australian news stories.

Every Australian story is different. These are the problems we see most, and the honest route we use for each one.

Correction and update requests

Stories with the wrong name, wrong facts, or no mention of how a case ended.

How we do itA request to the editor, with proof attached

Press Council complaints

If a member paper won't fix a clear error, the Australian Press Council can look at it.

How we do itA complaint under the Council's standards

TV and radio stories

Stories from broadcasters like the ABC and commercial TV news.

How we do itThe broadcaster's own process, then ACMA

Court suppression orders

Australian courts often limit what can be published. A story that breaks one is a serious matter.

How we do itNotice to the outlet, with your lawyer

Abusive posts sharing the story

Hateful comments and posts that spread the story on social media.

How we do itPlatform reports, and eSafety for serious abuse

Pushing down fair stories

When a story is fair and stays, we help true, positive results rank above it.

How we do itOur suppression service, with honest content only

When a story can't be removed

Accurate reporting on public matters is protected, and Australian privacy law gives news outlets wide room. A formal defamation claim needs a lawyer and a set legal process. If a fair story stays, we push it down instead.

AUSTRALIAN NEWS SITES

News sites people ask us about.

We have no special deal with any outlet. Each one has its own complaints process, and we follow it. We also help with The Australian, The Courier-Mail, The Age, and many others.

  • ABC News

    Has its own complaints process. Unresolved complaints about its broadcasts can go to ACMA.

  • SBS News

    Takes complaints through its own process, with ACMA as a next step for broadcasts.

  • Sydney Morning Herald

    A Press Council member, like The Age and Brisbane Times from the same group.

  • Herald Sun

    A Press Council member that shares stories with sister papers in other cities.

  • news.com.au

    A big online-only site. Its stories are often shared with sister papers.

  • Local papers

    Smaller papers often reply faster, and many follow Press Council standards.

Example

How it works: a café named by mistake.

A local news site reported a wage dispute and named the wrong café. The owner's café had nothing to do with it, but angry comments started to appear.

  1. 1

    We showed the real facts

    We sent the editor public business records showing which café was really involved.

  2. 2

    The editor corrected it

    The site fixed the name and added a correction note. Google showed the new headline after a refresh.

  3. 3

    We calmed the comments

    The outlet hid abusive comments under its Facebook post. A few honest reviews stayed, and we helped reply kindly.

This is an example to show how we work. It is not a real client.

FAQ

Questions people ask us

Sometimes. An Australian editor may remove, correct, or update a story when it is false, unfair, or out of date. Only the outlet can change its own site, so nobody can honestly guarantee a removal. We help you ask in the right way, with proof.

If it is a Press Council member, we can take a complaint to the Council. For TV and radio, there is ACMA. If the story still stays, we push it down with true, positive content, so it is not the first thing people see.

A true story about a public matter is unlikely to be removed, and we will tell you so. An editor may still add an update, such as how a case ended. If not, we help better results rank above it.

When an outlet removes a story, it is usually gone from that site for good. But copies can appear elsewhere, so we keep checking for them.

A correction or removal at the source is best, because it fixes the story for everyone. Pushing it down is the honest choice when the story is fair or the outlet says no. Often we use both.

No, not like in Europe or the UK. That is why we focus on editors, complaint bodies, and true content. Google may still remove some results, such as pages that share private contact details or that a court has found defamatory.

No. We are not a law firm and we do not give legal advice. Defamation claims in Australia follow a set legal process, so we suggest you speak to a lawyer, and we can work alongside them.
