Reporting Methodology:
The D&D Daily gathers retail-store specific information from public news media
sources throughout the United States and reports it daily through our
industry-renowned e-newsletter. We do not survey any retailers or third parties
nor collect information from any retail executives. All of this information is
available through public news media outlets. We do not claim nor does it
represent all such incidents or deaths that may occur in retail locations or
retail corporate facilities, as many may not be reported in the news media
depending on a number of variables outside of our control. We are not
responsible for the accuracy of the information reported in the various news
media outlets. We do not name any retailer, retail executive, suspect, or
victim.
Reposting/Sharing:

or its findings may be reposted or shared with proper attribution to the D&D
