About
The ninjaturtles.tv News Desk
Who writes the news on this site, how stories get made, and who is responsible for them.
How stories get made
The news desk runs on automated monitoring of official and primary sources: Paramount and Nickelodeon announcements, manufacturer channels (Playmates, Mattel, NECA, Super7 and other licensees), and the entertainment trade press. When something breaks, drafting is AI-assisted. Every story then passes human editorial oversight before it publishes.
Final editorial responsibility for everything published under the news desk byline rests with Mark Sheard, the site's editor.
Sourcing
Every story links its primary sources. If we report a release date, a casting, or a licensing deal, the claim is linked inline to the announcement or the trade report it came from. Where something is rumor or unconfirmed, we say so explicitly.
AI-assisted content
AI-assisted content on this site is labelled. The news desk byline itself signals the workflow described above: machine monitoring and drafting, human judgment and sign-off.
Corrections
If we got something wrong, tell us and we will fix it. Corrections come in via the site contact page or the forum. Corrected stories are updated in place.
