( AXIOM AGENT FOUND DEAD )

WHO: Sierra Onyango, Malachi, Hyewon Yoo, Felix Meyrick, Dembe Adrisi, Yuki Itoh, Harold Dingle [Axiom Rep], most major network and cable news outlets, and any students who wished to attend.
WHAT: A press conference to announce the Junior Axiom initiative.
WHERE: Camulus Press Room
WHEN: 11 February, 2037
STATUS: IC/OOC Log

The press room was jam-packed with press, Camulus staff and those students who decided to attend when the Executive Student Council and the Axiom Representative walked on-stage to make what the networks were hoping to be the most exciting news of the year.

They weren't disappointed, though the excitement held was both positive and negative. Many of the Executive Student Council spoke, as did the Axiom Representative, explaining the initiative and expressing their feelings on it. Nevertheless, the reviews were mixed. One journalist, a critic popular for being outspoken, was incredibly harsh, suggesting that this is simply a ploy for more media attention and not safe for either civilians or training Camulus students, a point at which Yuki suggested that the media let the students students themselves tell the media what they think instead of the media assuming.

Discussions continued for a while, but by the end of the conference, it was clear that in spite of some heated detractors, the media seemed fairly taken with the program.

Camulus Celeb Mason; A Merry Murderer?

A distraught mother is claiming that Ireland's latest entrant into the Camulus Academy is responsible for the death of her daughter.

Mason Halloran, 18, has already made quite a name for himself thanks to his impressive powerset and dark humour, but little else about the young man was known until now.

Lucille Smith, 46, claims that the Galway-born competitor is responsible for the death of her daughter, Molly Smith and two other young women.

"He murdered her and he's joking about it," A visibly-upset Lucille wept at a press conference earlier today, "I think it's disgusting that they can put a cold-blooded killer on TV like that. Molly was a lovely girl who never did anything wrong and he took her from us."

Pleading with the public to join with her in protest, Lucille hopes to see Halloran removed from the Academy and face charges for his crime.

Police in Galway so far refuse to comment on the incident that left three young women dead, merely stating that the matter had been investigated.


The article hit The Irish Post late afternoon in Europe, was picked up by a few other papers/newsites around the former United Kingdom and finally made it onto ONTD and the Blogosphere around early afternoon EST. Feel free to have characters comment accordingly.
