You're asking how it's sourced and verified? Yaar, from my experience, it's often a quick phone call to the federation's press officer, who gives a shiny, safe version. They don't come to a struggling athlete's damp hostel room to understand the real story. My own career ended with a "voluntary retirement" quote in the papers, when the truth was a fight over a torn ligament and zero support. They print the official line, not the one you tell your maa over the phone with a crack in your voice.
