Ownership and funding
Beauty Goon News is owned and operated by Ryan Vita. The site is funded through affiliate commissions on shopping links — when you buy through a link in The Store or an article, Ryan may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Affiliate relationships never decide coverage; the full policy is in the editorial standards.
How we report
BGN separates what is confirmed from what is heard. Stories label their confirmation status, corrections are noted on the article, and rumors are presented as rumors. The complete version lives on the editorial standards page.
