Responding to declining independent media coverage and taking advantage of new communication technologies, sports teams and leagues have entered the media business. This has included hiring reporters to write news content for their websites. Often produced by people plucked from press boxes, this content mirrors many of the genre conventions of news, right down to claims by the people writing it that these texts count as journalism. Using interview data, content analysis and textual analysis, this project finds that many working in this capacity claim to be journalists and articulate their job practices and ethical standards in ways that reconcile this belief with their employment situation. I analyze these data through the framework of boundary work, which describes the ways occupational groups discursively construct their limits in order to capture or preserve authority. The challenge to occupational categories and the adding of media production capabilities by sports organizations illustrate the limits of models of the sports media system, which treat actors as static and describe pre-digital era message flows. Sports journalism is changing as new voices stream into the media system. The ability of in-house reporters to claim a journalistic identity is helped along by sports journalism's tenuous connection to the larger profession, which has been challenged on ethical grounds for nearly a century.

This project finds that in-house reporters articulate a series relationships with other actors in the sports media system typical of journalists, right down to a rivalry with public relations departments. In-house reporters also adopt the journalism ethics of truth-seeking and independence in order to construct their identity. They say they strive to report only accurate information and maintain the freedom to write critically. Yet when put into the practice, both of these ethics tend to emphasize team control over information. In-house reporters define truth as information the team has confirmed. They tend to limit their sources to people connected to team, meaning they fish for information in a small pool. Most do not break news and downplay the practice as wasted effort. When faced with an unexpected story such as athletes engaging in protest, they say they have the freedom to define their news agendas, although disagree on the newsworthiness of those events.

This project argues that in-house reporters' ethical claims represent boundary work, but that their approach fails to connect with journalism's normative orientation toward an informed citizenry and full civic participation. Their attempts to claim journalistic authority may succeed in gaining themselves credibility with their audience, but the primary beneficiary of this is team itself, which gains authority for its website and greater control over information. An ethical approach drawn from work on mixed-media ethics is proposed for in-house reporters.
