Empty Spiral Co-Leader in Opie Porno Smear Shocker
Today saw the launch of Ravenblack City’s first television news service. Affiliated to BCI News, the new station is a joint venture between Lesion of the Empty Spirals and Shaarinya, BCI proprietress. The initial broadcast, aired this morning, showed the same incisive eye for news that the paper itself is unlikely to ever be known for: it was entirely about Lesions farts.
Unfortunately, the event was overshadowed by the announcement that Lesion, well known for his seedy dealings, is in possession of “dirty pictures” of Yggdrasil’s psychopathic supremo, ophelia. The images are sure to be in great demand on account of the city elder’s delicate and haunting beauty.
It is not clear at this stage what he is hoping to achieve by announcing this publicly. It must be assumed that the alliance between Yggdrasil and the Empty Spirals is hanging by a thread as morning breaks. This only serves to reinforce the recent tension between lower level members of the two clans.
Although ophelia was unavailable for comment, NiFlhEiM, ophelias husband and long standing angelic snowflake, was caught by this reporter slipping out of Discount Magic in a pair of oversize dark glasses borrowed from his wife. Although he offered a few words, none of them can be printed in such an august organ as the Ravenblack Grimoire.

Personally, I found the test run of the televised news broadcast quite entertaining. Seeing as how it was stated that it was the test run, I find it difficult to understand how it was taken so out of context. Regarding the porno accusations, I ask you this: Where is the nudity? Where is the sex?
I find myself shaking my head wondering how something that is made for the sole purpose of city wide news has been taken to the level of Clan relations. In creating this televised edition of the BCI News, Lesion is acting as a reporter for said newspaper, not as Clan co-leader. It seems that there are pires and piresses out there who are unable to separate the two; a pire acting as leader/co-leader of his or her Clan, and then acting as a reporter. The two are separate.

We think it’s absolutely hilarious. It sounds very much like it’s YOU who’ve lost your sense of humour.
Delphine
oh shaar.. your thongs are on too tight.. why so defensive? relax, would ya?
Altania
And this once again demonstrates why I never come to this publication.
You’re all tight-asses. If someone doesn’t do something exactly how you think it should be done. You insult them.
I pity the staff here, I really do.
Except Sade, if he still works here of course….he rocks.
Editor
Lesion bragging he has dirty pictures of ophelia is Lesion bragging he has dirty pictures of ophelia, irresepective of which role he occupies at the time

Okay, talk about a lack of sense of humor. Shaar, really, pull the stick out of your ass. If you expect ME to find it amusing that yourself and Lesion chose to drag my name and ‘dirty photographs’ that don’t exist into your new endevour without permission and find it funny (note I have not said a single negative word regarding this on any paper or in public), then perhaps you can read this particular article and then go back to some previous articles and see the subtle humor in it as well.
If you cannot, that is your bad, not the Editor that wrote the article in question. In fact, there really wasn’t any kind of slam to your precious video in the article and perhaps you should say thank you for the free advertisement to your paper instead of having a hissy fit on it and slamming the Grim, the Editors and Owner, including myself-a part of your funny without permission- like petulant child.
On behalf of the Staff here, you are most welcome!

I pity the staff here too. Do you have any idea how little I pay them?! In three years we’ve had six editors and they have all done me proud. I’d rather they posted nothing at all than endless mindless drivel. They know this and have honoured it. I’d rather look at a tight ass than hear about farts
Altania
Yeah, she said farts once, that makes the entire broadcast about farts. I can totally see where you all are coming from. rolls eyes
ophelia
….Altania’s eyes back to her* Somehow I doubt that but that is neither here nor there at this point in time ;)

Phe Phe (and I mean that in a very non-derrogetory way, honestly, I just thought it would be a fun nick name, but if you do not wish me to call you that, just say so and I will address you as Ophelia smiles)
My previous attitude was quite catty of me but honestly, I watched the video broadcast myself and I think it is hardly fair to say, and I quote, “it was entirely about Lesion’s farts.”
It was a test run, a short video test, that word was mentioned once, to say that it was the entire broadcast is ridiculous.
ophelia
While I thank you for the kindness, I would prefer to be addressed as ophelia. It has long been my belief that nicknames should only be used by those that are close to each other on some level, be it good or bad- and I do not feel that you and I have developed that kind of relationship. Besides, Phe Phe is an exclusive name used by Damari, whom I had in turn called Doo Doo on occasion (snickers as she writes this)
I can understand your irritation at that ONE line in this entire article over a several moments long twinkle twinkle tune dedicated to the flatulence of Lesion, however just as there was more to that well done test run, there is quite a bit more to this article beyond the single line you have honed in on.
And much like you’ve expressed your opinion on said article, perhaps it is the opinion of the author of this article that the thing that sticks out in memory of the test run of this innovative idea is the tune dedicated to Lesions gas issues.
I find it amazing that quite a few have taken offense to the writer’s tongue in cheek article and bashed them for not having a sense of humor when it is painfully apparent that those same vampires are obviously lacking when the humor is directed back at them.
Again, thank you for your courteous comments Altania.

Ophelia, you’re all too right on certain points.
While some believe that news must be button-down, serious business, I however, am more inclined to enjoy a more laid back style. Which I don’t find here. I feel as if because BCIN does have the more laid back attitude on most occasions, that their, as you called it, innovative idea was put down and poked fun at.
But I really don’t feel the need to argue these points back and forth, it’s not really something I enjoy. So where I am concerned, I think we should agree to disagree and I shall move on.
As for the supposed “photos” circulating, I have no idea where it came from but I wish you luck in straightening it out.
Ravana
To my eyes, BCI News is no more than a cheap imitation of the truly original Nitty Gritty, and to a lesser extent VNN. As for the “photos”, the article supporting the publishing of the teaser video made clear reference to future content including “nothing but dirty pictures of prominent city residents such as Ophelia Lokason”.
Altania
All news publications with the exception of the VNN (which I wasn’t part of the original and the creation of both escapes me so I don’t really know which was first.) are a re-creation of the Nitty Gritty.

The RavenBlack Grimoire is not a re-creation of any other news publication

Altania,
You have that completely wrong. The Grimoire was around BEFORE The Nitty Gritty, in its first AND latest incarnations.
It is by no means the first news publication but its certainly been around the longest in this city (still publishing) than any other newspaper.
And may I add the longest running ever. Despite the VNN’s reincarnation from its original concept many years ago. It’s not the same thing as it’s original - but this newspaper is. The same news organisation, the same paper, in the same location with the same name and concept.
