The league, governing body or event organizer decides. Trade press is for finding stories, never for citing alone. Most league sites block automated reads; check them by hand. Skip anything built around odds or betting picks. Gear reviews are other people's work: use them to learn that a product exists or changed, confirm with the maker, and never reuse a review's verdict. Leaks are not launches.
