Press covering ATX TV Festival 2026

Quoting from named bylines

1. Quote, don’t paraphrase. If a critic has written a sharp line, we quote it — verbatim — in a dedicated “What the critics said” round-up. No silent paraphrasing of someone else’s observation.
2. Attribute by name. Every quote credits the byline (Daniel Fienberg, Angie Han, Aramide Tinubu, etc.) and the publication. Headline-only quotes get credited as “Headline review” or similar.
3. Link the original. Every quote includes a direct link to the original article. Click-throughs go to the publisher, not to an aggregator.
4. Quote span. Pulls are typically 1–3 sentences, the minimum needed to convey the critic’s point without copying their argument.
5. No silent edits. If a quote is shortened, we use ellipses; if a word is changed for grammatical flow, brackets. The intent is the same as a print magazine’s quote-handling rules.

Linking to coverage we’re not quoting

1. Sources box. Every review ends with a sources box naming every outlet whose reporting informed the piece, with links to the relevant article(s).
2. Roster page. This page (the one you’re reading) is the festival-coverage roster, kept current as new ATX coverage publishes through May 28–31 and after.
3. No syndication, no aggregation-grade re-publishing. We don’t republish other outlets’ copy. Our pieces are written from scratch; others’ work is cited and linked.

Following the press community during festival week

From May 28–31 we’re building a roll of who’s in the room and what they’re filing. If you’re a journalist or critic covering ATX 2026 and you’d like to be added to this roster (or removed), reach editorial@tvawardshow.com directly.

The pre-staked attendee-report pages will, once filled in, link to peer coverage of the same panels — so a reader can compare what we recorded against what Variety, Deadline, the Chronicle, or anyone else recorded from the same room.
