3. Editorial Standards
All factual claims in our articles are sourced from public records, court filings, SEC documents, news reporting, and other verifiable sources. Sources are cited inline within articles and listed in the Sources section of each article.
Editorial commentary, analysis, humor, and satire are clearly distinguishable from factual reporting. Sections labeled "In Defense of" and "Sonny Jr. Esq." commentary represent editorial opinion, not statements of fact.

We use publicly available information, court records, SEC filings, and news reports as the basis for our commentary. We do not publish private information about individuals not already in the public record.

"Sonny Jr., Esq." is a fictional editorial persona and mascot of Bent Over Club. Sonny Jr., Esq. is not a real attorney, does not provide legal advice, and is not licensed to practice law in any jurisdiction. Any references to "Attorney at Law" or "legal counsel" in connection with this persona are satirical and should not be construed as an offer of legal services.
