  An adventure into the world of journalism. Each player is a newspaper editor and has a front page to make up. Each front page has four blank spaces still to be filled. With the aid of a team of four reporters, the editor must collect stories to fill these spaces. The playing board shows a map of the world with a selection of major cities. Players should strategically place reporters over the world to capture news as it breaks. A telex machine is used as a main feature of the game.
