A new wireless current affairs / talkshow broadcast within the Colonial fleet.
The first broadcast by the show was from the interim Quorum of Twelve aboard the Cloud Nine luxury liner.
The programme is hosted by three of the self-styled "only legitimate journalists left in the universe":
- James Macmanus, formerly of the Caprica Times
- Playa Palacios, a former veteran columnist with the Picon Star Tribune
- Sekou Hamilton, the former editor of the Arilon Gazette (Colonial Day).
Both Hamilton and Palacios are supporters of President Roslin, while Macmanus is deliberately outspoken against her abilities, possibly for the sake of heated debate in order to generate an audience.
