So I've been thinking, why not post a thread every now and then where the news covers the action that happens in these public areas between our heroes and villains? Up until now I've been keeping up with some threads and taking notes on what my character would know about and what he wouldn't know about (stuff like heroes saving the day and other things that would be broadcast over the news). However, for the sake of my role play experience, I don't quite feel comfortable reading some threads that not only do not involve him in any way, but also are for the most part a one on one conversation (not that there's anything wrong with that) because I feel it might affect the input I have in my posts.
To put it frankly, I would like to have a News post after any thread containing any sort of action that would be seen out in public, rather than me having to shuffle through threads and know some secret things that my character shouldn't know about, just so it doesn't influence me or anyone else's posts in some way. What are your thoughts?

I like this idea a lot. I tried kinda doing that with other threads myself, but that kinda feels like overstepping my boundaries. Love to know what you guys think.

This is something we had actually already discussed, somewhat. We had planned on using it when we introduced events or there was significant movement, but I could definitely do this if it's something that others would find helpful.

I could even do a different theme every time. Like a nightly news thing vs a 24-hour news cycle thing. Even do an over-the-top-conservative thing like Fox News. A comedy news program like The Daily Show. >_> Okay, I'm doing this whether you guys like it or not now. I'll make one tonight and see how I like it.

=/ I'm not so sure I like the way a political talk show turned out. Probably not a medium I'd use again, but that's it for now.
