Since this is brought up every HP forum, I am wondering if there shall be a newspaper. I got bored and made a crappy one, I do stupid stuff when I am bored. So I am just wondering if there will be a newspaper, don't shoot me. *ducks and hides*bg
Well, what would we need a newspaper for? The banner thing at the top informs us of all recent events of importance, and everything else is brought up in the Muggle World. Also, I am kinda suprised to hear this is on every HP forum. You've been to every single one and seen this topic on every single one? I know there are thousands of them, just from the links at the bottom of this site.

Most other websites with newspapers have a form of the Daily Prophet that serves as an In-Character newspaper. However, the Daily Prophet usually coincides with a Ministry for Magic. Given no real magical government in Spain, one cannot expect an official national newspaper.
However, I believe that it should not be out-of-the-question if someone wishes to create an adult witch or wizard that can run their own newspaper from either Drakborough or Triangle Tunnel. They would be able to employ other witches and wizards (or perhaps student interns) and send reporters out to cover various news stories and interview people. They could do special reports on various individuals or events. I think that it would be a grand idea to have a newspaper capable of doing these things from a detailed, in-character perspective.
One can consider the news on the top of the page as rather a "headline" thing that one would expect all characters on these boards to know something about.
For example, a massive attack on Triangle Tunnel would be a major headline that everyone would be expected to know. However, one would have to assume that most would not know everything that happened-- thus the need for reporters to cover the story and give detailed explanations of what happened and who was involved.
Pieces on certain characters or places from a reporters perspective and the perspectives of others via interviews would be highly interesting, too. I'm sure people would be interested in reading a news story about the Headmaster of Firefox, or the giant wolf in the woods, or this mad guy that led the attack on Triangle Tunnel, or what the best drink at Joker's Bar is, or how a professor plans his or her classes....
All in all, I think that if someone would be willing to create an adult character to manage such a business, it would be a most excellent idea and I would be willing to help get things moving.bg
If I had more talent, I would take up the role, but I am already pressed for time as it is. But with the chaos that will insue, I'm sure that a reporter's perspective would be interesting.
