The news writing, gathering and editorial process is obviously a lot more nuanced and complicated than what is presented here, but as a former journalist, I wholeheartedly approve of the concept.6 found this helpful

It has an enjoyable interface for editing articles and it even has mini-games during dialogue, your choices have real impact on how the story goes. I personally love games where the player has real impact on the story and this game delivers on that.
