Accuracy
Names, dates, scores and central claims should agree with the material supporting the report.
Editorial standards
Useful sports coverage starts with accountable choices.
Our standards cover the details readers can test: accurate headlines, clear attribution, relevant context, visible commercial labels and a practical route for corrections.

Before publication
The standards behind a SportLive TV page.
Different stories need different treatment, but these principles remain constant.
Attribution
Reporting that originates elsewhere remains credited. Quotations are kept faithful and selective.
Useful context
Background belongs in a story when it helps explain the event — not simply to make an article longer.
Freshness
Sports news changes quickly. Time-sensitive claims are reviewed with their publication context in mind.
How we make decisions
Clear lines for difficult cases.
These rules protect the difference between what is reported, what is promotional and what remains uncertain.
Original reporting and sourced reporting
We do not present another publisher’s reporting as our own first-hand work. Source material is attributed, and substantial passages are not reproduced.
Headlines and viewing claims
A headline should reflect the page beneath it. A broadcaster or streaming claim is qualified by territory and by the evidence available at the time.
Commercial independence
Partner links are labelled. A commercial relationship does not determine an editorial conclusion and does not prove that a provider carries a particular event.
Authorship
Desk-produced work is attributed to the SportLive TV Editorial Team. A named byline is reserved for a contributor represented by a genuine public profile.
Corrections
A correction should be easy to request and easy to understand.
If a material fact is wrong, send us the page address, the disputed detail and a reliable source. We review correction requests against the available evidence and update the page when a change is warranted.
