;WNKA International: Another studio shuttered and turned into flats.
Anne Bimby – WNKA International
The implosion of the American film industry continued today with the announcement that another major movie studio has closed its doors for good. Lowenstein Pictures was founded by Vinewood mogul Roy Lowenstein in the 1920s and soon became a production line for insipid family-friendly entertainment despite Mr. Lowenstein’s much publicized vicious mistreatment of his own wives and children. The news will no doubt deal another blow to Solomon Richards and his beleaguered Richards Majestic studio, which was been forced to scrape the creative barrel in recent years with desperate movies like Defender of the Faith in a last-ditch attempt to stave off bankruptcy.
;Daily Rag: Formage defeats revenue service – Epsilon program, ‘a religion, not a cult’ court declares.
Martina Bryans – Daily Rag
Cris Formage and his fellow Epilsonists were celebrating yesterday after the Supreme Court of the State of San Andreas overturned the Revenue Service’s claim that they were a cult, and not a real religion, and therefore should have their charitable status repealed. An Epsilon Program Spokesman said “when you think of cults, you think of deluded, self-appointed demigods wearing silly clothes, inventing silly words and telling everyone how to live. That’s not Epsilonism at all. We are a religion. We all like the same color and we are all involved in writing great work of scripture just like any other religion. The Tract is not yet written but it will be soon. This is a great day for mankind. In fact it’s the best day for a billion years or more. Kifflom”
;Weazel News: Security Agencies go head-to-head for funding
Cynthia Kelly – Weazel News
They are often described as the “twin pillars of our national security”, but now the FIB and the IAA have found a new enemy – each other. Following calls for balanced budgets and a proposed reduction in defense and security funding, both agencies have been lobbying hard in the Capital recently to explain why their budget should stay intact. FIB spokesman Gary Lane told anyone who would listen “reducing out budget now would be crazy. It would be how a crazy person would act. And the person who did it would probably discover that not only were they crazy, but also all of their dirty secrets were suddenly made public so everyone could decide if this is the kind of country we want to live in – one run by a crazy person with a mistress or two.” International Affairs Agency spokesperson Lucinda Jacob said “presidents that have tried to stop the IAA from performing our duty in ways we see fit have tended to wind up having their heads blown off. No. I’m only joking. Come on? Who can’t take a joke? The point is this – every day you’re not killed by terrorists or communists is a day you should give thanks to the IAA. We love this country. We love everything is stands for, like freedom and apple pie and things like that. We will repress any freedoms necessary to keep you free and fed on apple pie, or something like that. Listen, we need to keep our funding. It’s that or someone is going to get you in the can.” Both agencies criticized the other and blamed them for America’s problems domestically and overseas. Neither would do so on the record.
;Los Santos Media: Gang Crime on the rise again in Los Santos. Media to blame due to lack of coverage.
Robin Wark – Los Santos Meteor
After years of falling interest in gangs and gang culture, a recent rise in gang violence and in gang membership across Los Santos has led to calls for greater regulations covering media portrayals of violence. A broad spectrum of politicians were united in condemnation of the media yesterday after figures showed a recent upsurge in gang violence. The issue this time, according to experts in the field – a lack of recent movies and video games about gangs has apparently convinced young people that it is an acceptable choice. San Andreas gubernatorial candidate Sue Murry was one of many voiced wanting to be heard. “It’s simply irresponsible of Vinewood not to cover social problems. Without education from movies, how are children supposed to learn that shooting each other has serious consequences? Video games are even worse because they donate even less money to social causes and they love violence, especially the wrong kind.
;Liberty Tree: BAWSAQ swings wildly, pain shoots through traders.
Ian Garraway – Liberty Tree
From the moment the opening bell rang in the financial district here in Liberty City, there was shouting and screaming heard on the trading floor – in the streets and out of the windows of some of the largest trading firms. Wild dips were seen as companies lost 10 percent of their value in minutes as supercomputers executed millions of trades per second and their human masters sat back in horror as our financial system threatened to come crumbling down, before surging up in a late rally and ending the day just about to flay. “This is not conjecture, this is fact,” conjectured trader Adam Feinstein. Meanwhile regulators have been asked to look into the practice of computers automatically executing trades and causing wild swings in the markets. The practice has been banned on trading floors across Europe. “We’re not going to anything Europe does, since it’s probably wrong” said one trader.
;Daily Globe: Congress Privitaizes Defense as Weston takes big stake in Merryweather. CEO Percival ‘delighted to be of service. Disappointing at lack of scope.’
Mike Dunn – Daily Globe
A motion in Congress was defeated yesterday that would have prevented the expansion of companies such as Merryweather Security Consulting’s domestic operations. At the same time, it was announced that famed investor Devin Weston had bought a stake in the company. Merryweather CEO Don Percival has spent the last few months lobbying congress for more domestic contracts. Now he’s got his way with the firm being awarded several national and state defense contracts, although not yet the contract he craves with the Port of Los Santos or any of the country’s international airports. This means for the first time American is no outsourcing its domestic – as well as overseas – defense needs. Percival described the decision as “a farsighted and cost effective way to protect the nation. We will provide well-trained private contractors to do the job overly-entitled federal employees were doing for twice as much money.” At the same press conference, Merryweather announced it had sold a slug of its business – thought to be between 10 and 15 percent – to controversial investor, Devin Weston. Some eyebrows were raised at the timings, but Percival rejected these concerns as “pure coincidence masquerading as incrimination.”

;Daily Globe: Paps smear.
Shelia Hitano – Daily Globe
The Street Photographers Union who represent accredited paparazzi say that cameraphone wielding amateurs are putting hardworking celebrity stalkers out of business. In a recent high-profile incident, paparazzo Gene Admanson attacked a teenage girl who was snapping cameraphone pictures of pop-turned-country crooner Samantha Muldoon. “I make my living hiding in trash cans, jumping out in front of celebrity cars, trying to take pictures of their intimate areas. This is an art, and I will not be trodden on by amateurs,” he told the judge in court. It is estimate that one in five residents of Los Santos is a paparazzo, and the spread of cameraphones is threatening to put 20% of the city’s workforce out of employment.

;Daily Globe – Possible breakthrough in Leonora Johnson case
Shelia Hitano – Daily Globe
Since 1975 the brutal murder and dismemberment of pretty young startle Leonora Johnson has remained unsolved, captivating conspiracy theorists and lonely nutjobs. Now police believe they have made a breakthrough. Ira Richards, director of marketing at Richards Majestic and grandson of golden age movie mogul studio founder David Richards told a reporter in a drunken moment that his grandfather claimed to have destroyed a confession letter in the weeks before his death. Mr. Richards passed away last year aged 103. His son, Solomon Richards, has run the family studio since 1978 and told reporters he knew nothing beyond the fact his son was a moron, and his father was delusional. Several theories have been put forward as to who committed this brutal crime, which was follow up with a series of anonymous letters to Ms Johnson’s parents.

;Los Santos Meteor: Several dead in suspected gang shoot-out
Frank Edwards – Los Santos Meteor
Police are scratching their heads as to what caused a violent shootout in Puerto Del Sol yesterday that left several gang members dead. The recent rise in gang crime continues unabated. An alley of Magellan Avenue in Vespucci Beach was turned into a war zone and the battle then spilt out onto the surrounding streets. Police are uncertain if this means drug wars between Hispanic gangs have reignited, or if this was simply a deal or an altercation gone wrong. The Vagos are known to have long-term turf wars both internally and with the city’s other major street gangs, including the Aztecas who have been largely forced out of Los Santos into Blaine County, the Ballas and the Families. No one is clear on what caused this massacre, with LSPD spokesman Lee Whitless stating “We are desperately searching for someone to blame. We haven’t found anyone yet, so we are probably going to try to say something silly like ‘it’s the fault of junk food or pollution’ simply for something to say.”
;Weazel News: Gang wars, gun smuggling terrorize region
John Rios – Weazel News
The smuggling of weapons from the US into Mexico has transformed the Senora Desert region into a warzone in recent months, with rival traffickers including Mexican gang Varios Los Aztecas, El Salvadoran gang the Marabunta Grande and a network of independent traffickers working under the cartels. These groups are threatening to transform the Senora Desert region into a Wild West once again. Officials are concerned about how the violence will affect tourism.

Progress- and you'll see results.
Dear Michael,
Very good seeing you yesterday. I want to stress how important it is that we continue therapy.
We are on the point of a major breakthrough in your treatment. It's a fascinating process. When it seems pointless and exploitative is when therapy works the most! Life isn't meaningless. You're deeply trouble but together we can make you a functioning member of society. I recommends you keep taking the medication, continue to read the books I gave you and really try to understand what is causing these temper outbursts. We'll crack you yet, amigo!
We're in this together.
As you know, I really enjoy working together - you're a fascinating man, Michael, but I'm afraid medicine in this country is not a charity, and with that in mind, I am afraid I am going to put my rates up again. Only by 75% which I think is very reasonable, given the stresses and strains of my work.
Yours,
Isiah Friedlander

;Daily Rag: Rash of ATM robberies.
David Christian - Daily Rag
Citizens and visitors to Los Santos are being warned to stay on the alert after a spate of violent robberies at ATMs across the city. The LSPD is urging people to scan the surrounding area for suspicious characters before approaching an ATM. "We certainly do not want to encourage profiling," said police spokesman Lee Whitless, "but we would advise people to use cautious prejudice; you know, hide it behind a smile, the liberal way."
;Public Liberty Online: Weston goes into showbusiness
Gavin Mason - Public Liberty Online
Los Santos's most prominent financial guru and investor Devin Weston made a typically unexpected move yesterday. Just as conventional wisdom is moving out of movies in general and Vinewood studios in particular, Mr Weston bought a significant stake in legendary 'mini major' Richards Majestic. Founded in 1929 by current head honcho, Solomon Richards' late father David, Richards Majestic has endured turbulent times as a string of remakes, rom coms and super hero pictures have bombed at the box office. The result - Richards Majestic, the last true independent film studio - is now at least in part, under the ownership of a man who knows how to make money, if not movies. Mr. Weston told our reporter "I could not be happier. I love this town and now I've finally made an investment in its biggest industry. Richards Majestic has two movies currently in production; "Meltdown" and "Deep Inside". We expect to make money with both. I couldn't hope to learn from a better teacher than Solomon Richards, but I'm also hoping he can learn a thing or two from me."
;Public Liberty Online: Big Brother in your bathroom?
Gavin Mason - Public Liberty Online
A new online feature by Internet search juggernaut Eyefind has some privacy experts concerned. Eyefind Street Maps uses thermal and high resonance imaging to scan every house inside and out as an Eyefind truck travels down the street. High resolution images of the inside of your home are then viewable for anyone to see. "I like it," says resident [[Mindy Thompson]]. "It lets all your friends see what your place looks like." The online outcry has been from so called privacy experts. Liberal lawmakers heralded the move. "This is another great example of how Eyefind has successfully monetized our private information. They've taken every TV, gilm, song and even picture of the inside of our homes and monetized it for their gain. It's a true American success story," said Representative Richards Eggers.
;Los Santos Shepherd: Joyrider smashes into cars dealership in Pillbox Hill
Makayla Taylor - Los Santos Shepherd
Traffic accidents are common enough in Los Santos. Traffic accidents involving parked cars are not uncommon. Traffic accidents involving cars parked inside a dealership are still unusual, however, but that is just what happened yesterday in Pillbox Hill. A deranged or possibly drunk joyrider drove his car straight into the showroom of Premium Deluxe Motorsport. The owner, Mr Simeon Yetarian, was injured in the accident, but the driver fled the scene before cops could get there. Mr Yetarian told our reporter "I am a well known philanthropist and charity worker as well as an excellent car dealer. Therefore I can only say it is greatly unfortunate that a chubby alcoholic would consider my showroom an acceptable place to crash his car. I am hoping given all the work I do in the community and especially for race relations that the city will help me pay for the damage," A spokesman for the city commented "we have no comment at this time."
