About Signal & Circuit

Publisher Statement

“Games journalism has a sourcing problem. Numbers float around without timestamps. Claims circulate without citations. Analysis gets dressed up as reporting. Signal & Circuit exists to fix that — one article at a time, with every fact linked to a record and every number stamped with when it was measured.”

— Jeremy Pretty, Founder & Publisher, TMFPRETTY Media

Signal & Circuit covers games as both cultural products and economic systems, and is expanding selectively into AI infrastructure when those systems intersect with governance, labor, platform power, tooling, and operator reality. We treat these sectors with the same rigor: data transparency, disciplined sourcing, and structured debate between informed perspectives.

Every factual claim on this site is traceable to a named, timestamped source. Every data point carries a timestamp. When we are wrong, we say so publicly in our corrections log. When we are uncertain, we say that too.

This is not a fan site. It is a newsroom.
