Editorial Policy

Last updated: November 14, 2026 (Pakistan time)

This page explains, in full detail, how Talha M Blog works: who writes the stories, how topics are chosen, how facts are checked, how the writing is done, where the pictures come from, what we never do, and how we correct mistakes. If you read one page to understand this website, read this one. Everything here is a promise we make to every reader, and we expect to be judged by it.

Who writes Talha M Blog

Talha M Blog is written by one person: Talha Mehmood, the founder, writer and editor of this website. There is no team of writers, no newsroom, and no outside agency writing stories for us. One person chooses the topics, reads the sources, checks the facts, writes every story by hand in his own words, and answers the email.

Every story on this website is written by hand by Talha Mehmood. He reads the reports and the background material himself, understands the story himself, and then writes it himself in simple, clear English. Nothing here is copied from another website, and no story is published without him reading it first and checking it himself. The writing is his own work, done with care, word by word, so that ordinary readers can understand it without struggling.

Talha M Blog started in October 2026 in Pakistan. It is a small, independent website. It is not part of a large media group, a political party, a company, or any organisation. No one outside this website tells us what to write, and no one can pay to change a story.

How we choose what to write about

A story is chosen because it is important, interesting, or useful for ordinary readers. We cover world news, business, celebrity life stories, sports, technology, AI tools, health, nature, space, money-saving, and stories from Pakistan. A topic is picked when it matters to real people, when readers are asking about it, or when it helps someone understand the world a little better.

We do not choose a story because someone paid for it. We do not accept payment to write about a person, a company, a product, or an event. We do not publish sponsored stories dressed up as news. If a story ever involves a product or a service, it is because the writer found it genuinely interesting or useful, and that will be clear from the story itself.

We also avoid stories that exist only to shock or mislead. A rumour, a viral claim, or a sensational headline is not enough on its own. Before we write about something, we ask: is it true, is it important, and can we explain it honestly?

How we check the facts

Before a story is published, the facts are checked against reliable sources. For important stories, we compare reports from at least three independent sources, because a single report can be wrong, incomplete, or later corrected by the people involved. We read the original reports, not just summaries of them, and we check dates, names, places, and numbers carefully.

When a fact cannot be confirmed, we say so inside the story. We do not present a rumour as confirmed news, and we do not present a guess as a fact. Words like "reportedly", "according to reports", or "has not been confirmed" are used honestly, only when they are true, and they always mean that the information is not yet certain.

We do not invent quotations. If a person is quoted, the words come from a real interview, a real statement, or a real published report, and the story names where the quotation came from. We do not make up numbers, statistics, traffic figures, or earnings. If we do not know something, we say so plainly.

Every story shows the date and time it was published, in Pakistan time (PKT). When a story develops and we update it, the page shows an "Updated" date, so readers can see what changed and when.

How we write

Every story is written in simple, clear English. Many of our readers read the news in a second or third language, and hard words should never stand between a reader and the truth of a story. Writing simply does not mean writing less, or hiding the difficult parts. It means explaining with care: short sentences, plain words, and the background a reader needs to understand why the story matters.

We write in our own words. We do not copy and paste articles from other websites. We read several sources, understand the story, and then write it fresh, in our own way, for our own readers. Two stories on this website will never be the same story with only the names changed. Each story is written separately, with its own angle, its own examples, and its own explanation.

Our stories try to answer a few simple questions honestly: What happened? When and where did it happen? Who is involved? And why does it matter to ordinary people? We give the background as well as the latest update, so a reader who knows nothing about the topic can still follow the story from start to finish.

Each story on this website also carries the writer's own view, clearly marked as "My Take", so readers can tell the difference between the reported facts and the writer's personal opinion. The opinion is the writer's own, based on the facts in the story, and it never pretends to be a fact.

Sources: where our information comes from

Our stories are based on real, reliable sources: established news organisations, official statements, public records, and published reports. Every story names the sources it is based on, and links to the original reports where possible, so you can read them yourself and check our work.

We link to sources because transparency matters. If a reader doubts something in a story, the source links let them verify it directly. We do not hide where our information came from, and we do not present someone else's reporting as our own.

For celebrity life stories, we use published biographies, interviews, reputable news reports, and public records. For health stories, we use public-health information from recognised health organisations and medical sources, and we present it as general information only, never as medical advice for any individual reader. For money stories, we give general information about saving and spending, never personal financial advice.

Pictures on this website

The pictures on this website are illustrations made for our stories using AI image tools. They are symbolic scenes, not real photographs of the people or events described. A picture of a celebrity on this website is an artistic illustration, not a real photograph of that person, and readers should not mistake it for one.

We use illustrated pictures because this is a small website run by one person, and real photographs of every person and event we write about are not available to us. The pictures are made to match the story, to be attractive, and to help readers understand what the story is about at a glance. They are never presented as real photographs, and they are never used to mislead anyone about what happened.

In the rare case that a real photograph from another source is ever used on this website, it will be credited on the page where it appears.

What we never do

• We never invent quotations, and we never put words in a person's mouth that they did not say.
• We never make up numbers, statistics, or facts. If a number is in a story, it comes from a real source, and the source is named.
• We never present a rumour as confirmed news, and we never present a guess as a fact.
• We never copy and paste another website's article, and we never present someone else's work as our own.
• We never accept payment to write, change, hide, or remove a story. No advertiser, company, or individual can buy coverage here.
• We never take sides in politics. Political stories are explained without favouring any party, and all major views are described fairly.
• We never publish a story about a private person in a way that harasses, shames, or endangers them.
• We never pretend a picture is a real photograph when it is an illustration.

Corrections: how we fix mistakes

Mistakes can happen, especially when news changes quickly. When we find an error ourselves, or a reader reports one that checks out, we correct the post and mark it as updated, with the new "Updated" date shown on the page. We do not quietly delete the wrong information and pretend it was never there. A correction is made openly, so readers can trust that what they are reading now is the best information we have.

If a story is about you or your organisation and you believe something in it is wrong or unfair, email us at contact@talhablog.com with the story link and your response. Where it is fair, we will add your response or correct the story. Our Contact page explains how to reach us for corrections and other matters.

We welcome corrections and honest feedback. A reader who points out a real mistake helps every other reader, and we are grateful for it. We check every correction request against the sources before changing a story, because a correction must itself be correct.

Independence and advertising

Talha M Blog is independent. Advertisements never decide what we write, and no advertiser can pay to change, hide, or remove a story. We have applied to support this website with advertising served by Google AdSense, which is described in our Privacy Policy. Our application is under review, and no advertisements are shown yet. Once Google approves our application, advertisements will appear on our pages, clearly separate from our stories.

We do not write stories to please advertisers, and we do not avoid stories because an advertiser might dislike them. The writer chooses every topic freely, and the only question that matters is whether the story is true, important, and useful for readers.

Comments from readers

Readers can comment under stories with a name and an email address. There is no account and no password, your email address is never shown publicly, and comments appear immediately. Comments must be honest and respectful. The rules for comments are in our Terms of Use, and how comment information is handled is explained in our Privacy Policy. Comments are the readers' own views, not the views of Talha M Blog, and we do not edit comments to change what a reader said.

Health and money stories: a clear limit

Health stories on this website are general information only. They are not medical advice for any individual reader, they do not diagnose any condition, and they do not recommend any medicine or treatment. If you have a health concern, please speak to a qualified doctor or health professional. Our Disclaimer explains this in full.

Money stories on this website are general information about saving, spending, and everyday money habits. They are not personal financial advice, and they do not take the place of advice from a qualified financial adviser. Every reader's situation is different, and what works for one person may not work for another.

Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated from time to time as the website grows and as we learn what readers need. When it changes, the "Last updated" date at the top of this page will change too, so readers can see when it was last reviewed. The promises in this policy do not change with the date: honesty, independence, and care for the reader are permanent, not temporary.
