New News Group?

I would like to focus my autism upon a SLMC news website, like the Jessie War Journal or Grid At War.

This wouldn't be Chaos run, this would have anyone in the community interested in writing articles able to write them and have them on the site, from any perspective or bias, as long as it is written well. Obviously this wouldn't be a blog open to everyone and there'd be an approval process, but any opinion would be welcome.

If we wanted some form of SLMC journalism, we could separate Opinion Pieces from actual articles too.

It wouldn't be very expensive to put up or maintain, the issue is writers and interest. Does anyone have writers in mind? Does anyone have thoughts for this website?

As long as Skye Flaks isn't allowed to post anything but news-related stuff (if their app even gets approved), I'm down. Call me crazy, but the constant hawking of their goods over Fray and SLMCNews is more irritating than shitposting, to be quite honest.

More news would be interesting.
It just seems like very little is happening these days that would be newsworthy it seems, which is kind of why the old ones failed I think. JWJ petered off after Crushing Apathy because nothing else could top those articles.

Well that's the thing. Rome loves (loved?) making propaganda filled after action reports. I realize there is not a ton going on, but we have more than a few SLMC writefags. I think we could do something neat.

One thing that would help would be after action reports of raids though, something that people fucked off on doing forever. Those are good filler notices, honestly.
