Overseer News Network Suffers Near Death Scare

Overseer (ONN) - Cut out of the loop on the largest news stories in Inland in years, disgruntled staffers at the ONN staged a brief rebellion earlier this month that threatened the very survival of their tiny, omniscient land.

The revolt, which caught most nations by surprise, was motivated by outrage at the growing habit of nations to bypass official news sources entirely, issuing their own propagandist, heavily censored reports about the War Against Pythite Passive-Agression. Rumor has it the reporting team for the First Ulm-Ermor Conflict also turned out to decry the dearth of news from that sector, though their protest was itself rather muted.

The rebellion was quickly put down when the Overseer himself stepped in, and yelled "cut", in response to the cries of outrage from the community of nations. Said Cibragol, greedy leader of the beleaguered, but deadly, Pythium empire, "Now I shall never get my pearls!"

The momentary re-writing of history caused some confusion worldwide. C'tis is reported to have learned that they were always at war with Eastasia, assassins everywhere tried to claim double kills, and in the kingdom of T'ien Ch'i, nothing happened.
