KNWC (2009)

A science fiction fan is sitting in her room late at night turns on the Television for diversion. The KNWC newscast is beginning, anchored by rivals Lori and Sandi. Headlines include news that an elevator accident has opened up some parking spaces at the hotel. The top story is a live investigative report by Dave deep in the bowels of the hotel where strange sounds have been heard. This turns out it is just some gamers who have been there since Norwescon 1. They seem a bit too happy to see Dave though as the scene cuts back to the studio. Cory the War Correspondent reports from the front of the ongoing Science Fiction versus Fantasy battle. The economic news is a bit grim as the newscast goes through a number of different Financial Correspondents, each of whom takes their own life. A "live" traffic report set in the hallways is followed by an attempt at sports news. Lifestyle features include a look at a new 4-D movie, and a cooking segment from an overly enthusiastic chef. The final story, about the arrival of the Magical Con Fairy is marred only by Sandi's apparently assassination of Lori. Back in her room, the only person watching turns off the television, dismissing it all as, "The same thing as yesterday."
