Editorial Standards & Independence

Part of Buzz Media Group. This website is operated by THE UK BUZZ MEDIA GROUP LTD (company number 17555766).

Sports Lounge publishes sports news, results, commentary and features for readers across the UK. We aim to provide accurate, fair and useful reporting that distinguishes verified information from analysis and opinion.

Verification and sources

Writers should confirm scores, fixtures, transfers, quotations and other factual claims using reliable primary sources wherever practical. Unconfirmed rumours must be clearly described as unverified. Material taken from other publications must be attributed and must not be copied without permission.

Independence

Editorial coverage must not be purchased by advertisers, sponsors, clubs or other commercial partners. Paid content should be clearly labelled. Please also see our Advertising & Commercial Policy.

Opinion and reporting

Opinion pieces must be identified as commentary. Headlines and images should accurately reflect the accompanying article. We do not invent eyewitness accounts, interviews or quotations.

Images and copyright

We use images only when appropriately licensed or otherwise legally permitted, and provide credit where required. Images of sporting events must not be presented as photographs of unrelated events.

Corrections

We review credible reports of inaccuracies and make warranted corrections transparently. Read our Corrections Policy.
