Murders Strike Morning Daily Times
By Yggdrasil
RangeroftheNorth, a long time employee of the Morning Daily Times, was found dead outside the offices of the Morning Daily Times. Ranger’s body was found early in the morning by the paper boy, who was picking up the morning papers. Police say that Ranger was shot multiple times by a handgun. Unfortunately, the police have no leads on the identity of Ranger’s murderers. “We are working day and night to find the murderers,” wrote the police chief in a memo to the press, who was unavailable for comment due to vacation.
Ranger was a respected member of the MDT’s staff of writers. Writing under the pen-name of David Maziltoff, Ranger wrote the daily horoscope column. Being one with a grim sense of humor, he was often known for predicting the deaths of famous people, which made his horoscope the most controversial in America. In earlier interviews, he responded to the criticism by saying, “being able to predict death is the best way to avoid it.” Unfortunately, it appears he was wrong.

Commodore Amazing
By N_lich
The Morning Daily Times’ internship program has made an impact on the lives and careers of many young, aspiring journalists. One such intern isCommodore Amazing. After graduating from the Southern University of California, Commodore joined the internship program at the MDT with only a little experience working on his school’s newspaper. Now, Commodore has made great strides, impressing many people along the way.
“Commodore is one of the best interns we’ve had in our program,” remarked his supervisor. “After just a few months here, I feel that he is capable of working at the level of some of our full time employees.” With the recent murders and turnover at the MDT, Commodore may just get that chance to move from his role as an intern to that of a full time staff member.

By Baby Jesus
Recent rumors regardingbethelmarkand his alleged addiction to candy are taking their toll on his public image. Photos taken by an amateur photographer were released yesterday, which show bethelmark taking a lollipop from a local toddler in a local park. “I’m shocked that someone would accuse my son of something like this,” said bethelmark’s mother. “Whoever is making up these allegations is a fraud.” Currently, the advisory board at the MDT where bethelmark works is investigating these allegations. Until the investigation is over, the advisory board has decided to temporarily suspend bethelmark’s voting privileges.
