The two-source rule
A news post publishes same-day only when its core facts are confirmed on a publicly accessible official Amazon page, or reported consistently by two or more independent outlets. Several blogs quoting the same press release count as one source, not three.
Every figure clears the same bar
Any specific number — a fee, a date, a threshold — that can't be verified against that standard is cut before publishing. We publish the accurate general version without it, rather than a precise-sounding figure we can't stand behind.
What we can't verify stays a draft
Stories that are real but rest on a single source, or on details only visible inside Seller Central, are held as drafts until a human verifies them. Publishing speed never outranks being right.
The operator's read is the point
Amazon's announcements are public; what they mean for a private-label seller's margins is not. Every post ends with what we'd actually do about it — that judgment is ours, it's labelled as ours, and it's why the post exists.
Sources are named
Every post lists its sources, primary first. If we relied on two independent outlets rather than an official page, we name both.
Corrections
If we get a fact wrong, we correct the post and say so in the post. Found one? Email contact@admodifier.com — we'd rather fix it than defend it.
