About Us

The Death Reports is a digital newsroom dedicated to one thing: reporting verified deaths and preserving the legacies of notable people with accuracy and care.

Our mission

We document the passing of people who shaped culture, sport, politics, science and public life — and we keep a permanent, respectful record of who they were.

What we publish

Every death we report is paired with two things: a news report of the death, and a permanent memorial profile covering the person's life, work and legacy.

How we work

  • We publish a death as confirmed only after it is supported by reliable sourcing — typically two independent sources, or an official or family statement.
  • Each report links every claim to its sources.
  • We do not use AI to write our reports.
  • We correct the record promptly and transparently when we get something wrong.
