Editorial Policy

At ENFELL, our commitment to journalistic integrity is just as strong as our passion for the NFL. Publishing round-the-clock news—at a pace of one fresh article every hour—requires a rigorous, streamlined, and uncompromising editorial framework.

This Editorial Policy outlines the standards and practices that founder Lee Walker and our entire editorial team adhere to, ensuring that our readers receive accurate, trustworthy, and authoritative football coverage 24/7.

1. Accuracy and Fact-Checking

While we pride ourselves on speed and delivering real-time updates, accuracy is always our primary objective.

  • Every article published on enfell.com is reviewed by our editorial team before going live.

  • We cross-reference breaking news with official NFL releases, verified team announcements, NFLPA statements, and trusted primary sources.

  • We do not publish clickbait. Our headlines accurately reflect the content of the article. If a story is a rumor, prediction, or opinion, it is explicitly stated in the headline or the opening paragraph.

2. Sourcing and Attribution

Our credibility relies on transparent sourcing.

  • Primary Sources: We prioritize on-the-record quotes from players, coaches, agents, and executives.

  • Credit: Whenever we report a story broken by another journalist, publication, or network, we provide clear and prominent attribution, including a direct hyperlink to the original source.

  • Anonymous Sources: We understand that the NFL landscape often involves insider information. We only use anonymous sources if the information is highly newsworthy and the source has a proven track record of reliability with our editorial team. We will always explain why the source has been granted anonymity (e.g., “a league source not authorized to speak publicly”).

3. Objectivity and Independence

ENFELL is a fully independent digital news organization.

  • We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the National Football League (NFL) or any of its 32 franchises.

  • Our writers and editors are required to maintain strict objectivity. We cover all teams fairly and do not let personal fandom dictate our coverage, analysis, or news placement.

  • Any potential conflicts of interest among our staff must be disclosed to the managing editor and, if relevant, to our readers.

4. Corrections and Updates Policy

In the fast-paced environment of hourly sports news, situations evolve, and human errors can occasionally occur. When we make a mistake, we believe in radical transparency.

  • Factual Errors: If a factual error is identified in a published piece, we correct the article immediately. We append a clearly visible “Correction” note at the top or bottom of the article detailing what was corrected and when.

  • Developing Stories: For breaking news that is continually developing, we use “Update” timestamps within the article to reflect the most current information as it becomes available.

  • If you spot an error, please reach out to us at contact@enfell.com with “Correction Request” in the subject line.

5. Plagiarism and Originality

ENFELL has a zero-tolerance policy for plagiarism.

  • All content published must be the original work of our writers or properly licensed.

  • Any writer found guilty of plagiarism, including copying text without attribution or failing to cite sources, will be subject to immediate termination.

6. AI and Automation

To maintain our rigorous 24/7 publishing schedule, we may utilize technology to assist with data sorting, statistical analysis, or basic formatting. However, every single article is written, reviewed, fact-checked, and approved by a human editor. We do not publish purely AI-generated journalism. The insights, analysis, and final words are always crafted by our expert team.
