Normally quiet on a Sunday morning, the newsroom exuded an unusual amount of commotion. Smack in the middle of all the chaos stood the station manager, Rodger Jeffries. The one man Pudge couldn’t seem to impress. No matter how hard Pudge had tried, Rodger had been nothing but negative. Even when co-workers, like Kyle, had given Pudge high recommendations, Rodger always had a bullshit reason to give assignments or edgy breaking news stories to someone else. Not today. no no todays our day today we show him we show them all When Kyle had called this morning, Pudge jumped at the chance to be part of the news team Rodger planned to send to Saint Mark’s. While Pudge could care less about the victims or the church’s parishioners, having the opportunity to work a story that would make national headlines only made Pudge hungrier. The carrot had been dangled in front of them too many times, only to be snatched away. This time, they’d chomp on that carrot, and if need be, even the hand dangling it.
