Get the score right. Make the story worth reading.
What readers can expect from every story at The Overreaction Desk.
Accuracy
Scores, statistics, transactions, and other material facts are checked against official records and trusted reporting. Sources are linked so readers can see where the information came from.
News and opinion
News stories tell readers what happened before offering analysis. Opinion is clearly labeled. Humor follows the facts and never replaces them.
Respect
We criticize performances, coaching decisions, front offices, rivalries, and unrealistic expectations. We do not target protected characteristics, families, private lives, serious injuries, tragedies, children, or crime victims.
Corrections
When we get a material fact wrong, we correct the article and explain the change. Send questions or corrections to [email protected].
