I believe you are confusing advertising and bribing...unless siro will include my ads for free, don't i have a right to pay him in Apolyton's favorite yellow fruit? Or in peaches, if he prefers them?

ooh...i thought you would figure out that that was not supposed to be a part of the ad ...but as I said, if you think it can count as a "soundbyte" put it in as such, otherwise put the rest in as an ad.

I can pay in anything I can find an image of at google

I kinda figured it was what you wanted but I always want to be sure when it comes to clients. Yeah I can use it as sound bytes. Tonight's updates going to take a little while longer cause I've got to dig up good misquotes from the candidates who didn't respond. That'll teach em

Now to stop bumping up my competitors paper. Not that it matters cause Panag will bump it every five seconds.

Well, I figure, if you want to have an ad, you should write some unrelated original content.

Since I don't really need anything except original content.

As National Mathematician, I have an important announcement: I have discovered that our president made an error in making the polls: Polls that start 6/11 and last 5 days do not end 6/15, they end on 6/16. This means all the elections still have one day left!

As for bias, why not? all newspapers are anyways. gotta sift for the truth, just like real life. both you and moral hazard can be biased, though it'd be more interesting if you both claimed to be objective...

Comments:

"Allah is the only true God". "What?" said the first, "Everybody knows that Jehovah is the real god". Ignoring their comrades calls to "postpone the discussion to later times", the two protester proceeded to punch each other in the face.

I laughed out loud at this point!

“The leftwing protestor claimed that the rocks were merely a weapon of popular dissent, and therefore were fully legitimate. Yet when an approaching army vehicle began hurling rocks at the protestors, some began crying about "excessive use of power" and "illegal use of lethal weapons". "Those are boulders!" yelled a protestor fleeing for his life.”

Another point where I literally laughed out loud.

About what you wrote about me: All I will say is very interesting to see what others think about you and to see their perspective. I think I liked this paper the most because it gave me a different view of my surroundings here that is impossible to get from just yourself.

Thanks for the compliments

You have to admit that the Apolytonian had excellent content, even if it was more CNN like. I laughed out loud from several jokes.

I will edit the paper to make sure that the text is black.

Time - I thought that giving nice interesting perspectives will be cool. Thanks for the rest.

Btw, meanwhile no one is mentioning the Banana bit. I thought it was funny.
