School Newspaper Newshound: Difference between revisions

* [[Glee]] seems to get into this trope occasionally, especially with the school new's coverage of the prom king/queen elections. Of course, this could just be more of Glee's typical over-the-top exaggerated style.

* The school newspaper "Étudiants debout" (Stand up, students) in [[Radio Enfer]] both subvert it and play it straight (except for the production values which are treated rather realistically). It's main writer, [[Small Name, Big Ego|Vincent Gélinas]], uses to smear anyone he didn't like (or at least [[Accentuate the Negative]]), while screaming "[[Large Ham|It's a SCANDAL!!!]]", including the principal (which backfired [[Laser-Guided Karma|spectacularely]]). In fact, in an aversion of this trope, the newspaper club's (of which Vincent soon becomes the only member thanks to his jerkassery) budget gets cut quite often when the principal has enough of his crap. In the later seasons, though, he's shown to be capable of being a competent journalism following his [[Character Development]] (unfortunately, the damage is already done and he always ends up being the only one reading his own newspaper).

Rodolphe Giroux (the principal): Good. [[Deadpan Snarker|For once, your newspaper will be useful for something.]] }}

* [[Gilmore Girls]] has Rory, who began the series as an aspiring journalist.
