Patriot News Network (PNN)

ABOUT US

Here at Patriot News Network, we have one singular focus: pulling back the curtain on everything wrong in San Andreas. The mainstream media is so backwards and cowardly that they won’t report on the dirty truths we all face - government corruption, frequent disregard of individual freedoms and constant gang violence. Instead, the gutless neo-liberals try to feed us propaganda aimed at pulling the wool over our eyes. No longer will we be led like sheep. The truth belongs to us, and we’re going to share it with you.

 

ORIGINS

Patriot News Network is a relatively new organization, founded by Buck “The Colonel” Chanady, a retired US Army combat veteran. The Colonel brought the current group of journalists and staff members together to form a conglomerate of previously independent reporters and bloggers, forming a small army of honest and passionate patriots to combat the never-ending tide of propaganda spewed by mainstream news sources.

 

WHAT WE DO

While our mainstay is the publishing of hard hitting articles to reflect the true conditions in our state, we also have other journalism programs, including:

POLICE WATCH: Our journalists are actively encouraged to take time, when possible, to record interactions between police and the citizens of our State, including traffic stops, arrests, street accidents and the aftermath of any shootings that may occur. While the police may object, our organization understands the importance of police accountability and ensuring that if a story develops in a police situation, we’ll be the ones telling you the details without any pro-police slant. This is as much a police accountability program as it is a journalistic venture.

STRANGE OCCURRENCES: Have you seen something strange and unexplainable in our State? You’re not alone. Almost every day we receive tips about UFO sightings, visits from strange officials of the Federal Government, abductions and even supernatural events. If you or someone you know has had something strange occur AND you have evidence (photographs, video or witnesses) we will gladly pay you for your story and ensure the world knows what happened. 

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: We believe in full transparency. If you read an article and take issues with it or add to the details, please message the editor, Earl Pickett, via email. ((Click here to message him.)) We would be happy to publish your letter.
 

RECRUITMENT
    Patriot News Network is constantly on the lookout for new employees, however we do not recruit in a traditional application/resume fashion. Rather, if you are interested in working for us, please submit compelling articles and photos to us. If we like them, we’ll likely publish it and pay you for your work. If we like it enough, we may send you an offer for full-time employment.

 

CONTACT US
While our headquarters is securely housed in a top secret location, we maintain a field office in Los Santos:
Office #2, Arcturus Office Complex
Alta St, Pillbox Hill
Los Santos, San Andreas

 

Alternatively, feel free to email us at any point with any questions you may have! We will also have a Facebrowser page coming soon.

 

(( OOC Note: While we do intend to publish some stories that are so far right-wing and sensationalist that they may seem outrageous or silly, I want to assure you that the employees of Patriot News Network will be held to extremely high expectations when it comes to RP. If you have any concerns about our conduct, please feel free to reach out to me at any time. ))

(( Good luck from us, this will be interesting to follow ))

(( So far, so good. Most of the past week has been spent organizing our staff, figuring out revenue sources and researching for articles. We're trying to focus more on larger, researched exposé pieces of journalism, so articles may be infrequent as we begin. Our first article, linked here, is an example. ))

Best of luck, so provided the roleplay quality is good, I believe the server could definitely benefit from a right leaning news paper.

Just giving everyone (employees included) a quick update - I've been inactive lately due to RL obligations but that should be improving now. Thank you to those who have submitted articles/photos recently, there should be a few new articles over the next week.
