Bleacher Report Updates Its Standards

Amen!

Changes to B/R Publishing Policies
Dear Writers,

People write for Bleacher Report to reach an audience, and as B/R's audience continues to grow, and we strive to keep our quality standards high, we are asking a significant percentage of writers to reapply to write for the site.

Your Bleacher Report profile, account and past articles are still intact, and you're still able to comment on stories and interact with fellow readers. But in order to continue writing, you'll need to send a writing sample, and a link to your B/R profile page to [email protected].

As the site grows, we need to make sure the writers contributing to the site are providing clean and well-edited copy, high-quality analysis, and adding something new to the sports conversation. To be fair to the many writers at Bleacher Report, our quality standards must remain high.

We know this is an inconvenience, and if you feel your writer privileges have been removed mistakenly, don't hesitate to reapply to write for the site — your work should speak for itself.

Thanks for your cooperation,

The Bleacher Report Editorial Team

scrapping for legitimacy...not gonna happen

the only way to keep readership up is to make sure everyone knows Bret Farve wears Crocks

Wow - by one of their own standards, they'll have to turn everyone down and quit publishing stories.

"...adding something new to the sports conversation."

Hasn't everything already been said about sports that can be said? ;)
