The counterpart to the Absurdly Powerful Student Council is an absurdly elaborate school paper with production values and writing quality that real commercial newspapers would envy. The activities of the Absurdly Powerful Student Council and other very popular students will be chronicled in minute detail by the school newspaper newshounds that staff the paper, all of whom have very serious aspirations to a career in Journalism. Quite often they will also report about events around the city or town that the story is set in. Major plot points will be revealed — or distorted! — on the front page of the school newspaper. A few schools even have radio and/or television programs run by a "broadcasting club". Real schools, particularly of the Elaborate University High type, sometimes have real newspapers of this level of quality, but they tend to report actual news or fluff pieces, rather than the sorts of gossip that find their way into anime school newspapers. For these reasons, the club is often a functional antagonist to the Absurdly Powerful Student Council. Chances are good (in fiction) this student later gets a career as an Intrepid Reporter. |

Somewhat subverted in Zoey 101. Jeremiah Trottman, face of school TV network PCA News, doesn't aspire to become a news reporter. He is in it to impress the occasional airhead and for a future as an anchorman with a 'seven-figure' salary. Apart from regular reporting (dances, elections,...), the network is mostly abused for revenge plots. | |

The school newspaper "Étudiants debout!" (Standing up students!) in Radio Enfer both subvert it and play it straight (except for the production values which are treated rather realistically). Its main writer, Vincent Gélinas, uses to smear anyone he didn't like (or at least Accentuate the Negative) while screaming "It's a SCANDAL!!!", including the principal Mr. Giroux (which backfired spectacularly). In fact, in an aversion of this trope, the newspaper club's (of which Vincent soon becomes the only member thanks to his jerkassery before getting a new member with Dominique Vachon) budget gets cut quite often when the principal has enough of his crap. In the later seasons, though, he's shown to be capable of being a competent journalist following his Character Development (unfortunately, the damage is already done and he always ends up being the only one reading his own newspaper). | |

The main characters from Rosario + Vampire are in the Newspaper Club. They are often involved in several battles and even crimes, but they never mention their involvement at all to avoid even more attention from everyone at school. On the plus side, this gives them an excuse to go into the human world during summer vacation, under the guise of "Investigative Reporting". On the minus side, they usually end up running into monstrous conflicts even there. | |

Hoshizaki High School in Asteroid in Love has a newspaper club. However, unlike most examples in manga, this Newspaper Club is actually a Club Stub, and the newspaper they make—even after passing through the advising teacher with an 80% rejection rate—has few readership, even worse than the Earth Science Club, whose newsletter is strictly confined to astronomy and geology. It's to a point that the Newspaper Club attempts to scoop material to blackmail the Earth Science Club. | |

Sweet Valley High has Elizabeth Wakefield: In Sweet Valley High, she writes a gossip column "Eyes and Ears" for the school newspaper The Oracle. Elizabeth's pursuit of a story often served as either a subplot or a lead-in to the main plot in several books. In Sweet Valley Twins, she's in charge of the sixth-grade newspaper The Sixers. In Sweet Valley University, she switches to TV and becomes an investigative reporter for WSVU, the campus station. She breaks several scandals that become ongoing plot points in the series. |

The Gravedale High episode "The Grave Intruder" had Duzer take over control of the school newspaper to make up phony stories that cause a lot of problems in the school, such as Coach Cadaver being incensed by a story claiming he has a human brain and Headmistress Crone making advances toward Max Schneider after reading a story that claimed he loved her. Duzer eventually realizes that fake news stories are hurtful when the rest of the class fabricates a story about Duzer loving Frankentyke. | |

Our Miss Brooks: Walter Denton is editor of the school paper, the "Madison Monitor". From time to time he gets himself into trouble by writing editorials critical of Mr. Conklin or Madison High School in general, i.e. "Cafeteria Strike" and "Threat to Abolish the School Paper". "Marinated Hearing" revolves around Miss Brooks' attempt to keep Walter Denton from publishing an editorial insulting the Board of Education in revenge for only giving students 2½ instead of 3 weeks of Christmas Vacation. Walter also plays the gossip columnist in a couple of episodes, with a column entitled "Campus Dirt: Shoveled by Walter Denton". This is to Miss Brooks' dismay, as he uses the column to blab about her being disappointed that Mr. Boynton is away at a Biologist's Convention. Like any good high school reporter, he's also on the prowl for news. We see him at it in the episode "Kritch Cave". |

in the Discworld of A.A. Pessimal, the Assassins' Guild School is allowed its own student newspaper, the Cloak and Dagger. In the hands of editor Rupert Mericet note A Guild pupil who takes his distant relative's sense of dark sarcasm and turns it into dark satire it becomes a lethal weapon and every new edition is very carefully edited by members of the teaching staff - just in case. Rupert Mericet is written as a deliberate Expy of Peter Cook, the co-inspiration behind satirical magazine Private Eye, who edited the student newspaper at Shrewsbury School and used it as a vehicle for slipping through items of gossip and potential libel concerning the teaching staff. Younger talents such as Mariella Smith-Rhodes and cartoonist Nigella Wiggs add to the sedition, and in fact the C&D is regularly mined by the gossip column of the Ankh-Morpork Times for useful snippets about the Guild. The Times pays well for stories - and Nigella's cartoons - which is a useful addition to a student's spending power. | |

Once Masaya enters the school as the first male student, she constantly hounds him for interviews and pictures, something he's surprisingly okay with if it means that the other students will see him as something other than a pervert or voyeur. | |

Family Ties: Alex learns a tough lesson on journalism ethics in Season 1's "Big Brother is Watching," when he uncovers a cheating scandal involving his sister, Mallory, and most of the popular students/athletes. Despite an admonition by the advisor not to publish the story with the names, Alex feels obliged to do so ... and he loses his job as a result. Alex adamantly defends his stance, but Steven tells him that while he was correct in publishing an unflattering story, he was unfair by publishing the names of the students involved, none of whom had had their due process yet. | |

Several Afterschool Special programs centering on censorship were set at a high school newspaper. The scenario usually saw the main protagonist (usually a self-assured high school senior girl who was the editor) uncover some major scandal or wrongdoing, or at the very least, write a story on a subject that paints the school in an unflattering light, the principal getting wind of the newspaper's plans, and efforts to stop the story from being published kick into high gear. The editor will invariably stand his/her ground, and the battle eventually is brought before the school board, and if not resolved go to court. Almost always, the student editor comes out victorious, leaving the administration and/or student athletes to deal with the fallout. | |

Degrassi: Degrassi Junior High features student journalist Caitlin Ryan. While she was never quite as good as she hoped to be, the sequel series shows that she eventually achieved a successful career in broadcast journalism as an adult. On Degrassi: The Next Generation, Caitlin's legacy is carried on by Ellie, who both writes for Degrassi's school paper The Grapevine and interns under Caitlin herself. Ellie at times goes to great lengths for the sake of her reporting; for example, in the Season 3 episode "Take On Me" when she purposefully lands herself in Saturday detention in order to investigate a series of thefts. In season 6, she goes on write for her university's newspaper The Core, and by her final appearance in season 8, she has become one of the paper's editors. In later seasons, Chantay runs her own blog called the Anti-Grapevine, which is about the gossip and news of the school. |

One of the best-known episodes of the series — and the template for the Very Special Episode — was the 1983 episode "The Reporter," where Arnold (Gary Coleman) writes a story about a drug deal made on school grounds. The principal, thinking the intended report was a fabrication (or at the very least, is unflattering), wants the story pulled ... until First Lady Nancy Reagan (in the midst of her "Just Say No" campaign) shows up to not only substantiate the story but state that drug pushers are at work in schools across the nation. | |

Chloe from the early seasons of Smallville. She was the editor-in-chief of her high school newspaper in her freshman year. Anyone who's been on a high school newspaper knows how ridiculously unlikely that is. However, considering that her entire staff consists of herself, Clark, Pete Ross, Greg Arkin (who's an early Monster of the Week), and occasionally Lana Lang, plus a couple of computer science students who service the computers, and a couple of photographers, it's perhaps not so surprising. They're all her contemporaries, implying that the entire previous staff of the Torch fell away or graduated the previous year, and she's the only one who's really invested in it early on. | |

Averted with the Mass Media Club in Kaguya-sama: Love Is War. Despite Shuchi'in Academy being a school for the ultra-rich and the club being run by the daughter of a major newspaper's editor, their production quality is in line with a real-life school newspaper and they only cover mundane school events and local news. Karen and Erika do both obsess with the student council (as fangirls), but they tend to only do that on their personal time. | |

Saved by the Bell: The New Class: Two episodes center around the school newspaper, the Bayside Breeze. "The People's Choice," from 1994, centers around new faculty adviser Screech's attempts to improve the paper, leading to student staff members skipping class to work on the paper. The 1998 episode "Do the Write Thing" centers on administrative censorship after Mr. Belding withholds publication of an article about student athletes getting preferential treatment for such things as discipline and assignments. (The original series had no newspaper-centered episodes, but did have one centering around the school's radio station, KKTY, which has a news program.) | |

The Prince of Tennis: Despite not belonging to the school newspaper, Sadaharu Inui fits some of the tropes when he goes in his "data gathering" rounds, to the point of stalking his own teammates more than once just to get their reactions (and getting beaten up when they find out). In the Chinese drama, Tomoka Osakada is actually a member of the school paper. Word of God says that Wakashi Hiyoshi is in the school paper, and it also states that when not in the tennis fields, he seems to always be on the lookout for strange phenomena such as UFOs. |

The principal, thinking the intended report was a fabrication (or at the very least, is unflattering), wants the story pulled ... until First Lady Nancy Reagan (in the midst of her "Just Say No" campaign) shows up to not only substantiate the story but state that drug pushers are at work in schools across the nation. Arnold continued to write for school newspapers throughout the rest of the series, and the occasional episode was dedicated to his developing journalism career. For instance, the last-aired episode of the series — "The Front Page," aired March 7, 1986 — saw Arnold go undercover to confirm suspicions that a popular athlete was using steroids. |

Ouran High School Host Club had one of these purposely trying to dig up any dark secrets of the club, especially on Tamaki, making it seem more like a School Paparazzi Hound. Naturally, for a school catering to the stinkin' rich, it is extremely elaborate, despite its almost zero readership. The school newspaper is straight-up called a gossip rag by Hikaru and Kaoru. The fact that despite being the son of the head of a famous newspaper the Newspaper Club's head doesn't dispute this fact (and during the episode that the newspaper is featured in is actively attempting to get information out of Haruhi that he can use to humiliate Tamaki) serves only to bolster this claim. It's also outright stated that the reason that the newspaper's circulation is almost nothing is because it focuses on dirty secrets of various other students instead of anything newsworthy. | |

Kaori Shimakura from Ojamajo Doremi is an 8-year-old version of this trope. There are deeper reasons for it, though: it's to cover up for her severe self-esteem problems. | |

The Brady Bunch: In Season 3's "The Power of the Press," Peter joins the Filmore Junior High newspaper staff and gains friends when he publishes their names in his column, "Scoop Brady." However, when Peter gets a poor grade on his science test (he had neglected to study), he decides to bargain for a better grade by writing a flattering article about the teacher (a gentleman nearing retirement age) ... the same teacher he and his fellow students had derided as being dull and using outdated teaching methods. Of course, the episode's moral is enforced fully: "Flattery will get you nowhere," and Peter's "D" on his science test stands. | |

The Broadcasting Club in Marmalade Boy. Specially Furutachi-sempai, who once seriously screws up by taking pics of Miki and Yuu's recently re-married parents. To his credit, he immediately regretted the mess he had caused and not only alerted the parents when Miki and Yuu were harassed by a Sadist Teacher but managed to bring them to the school so they would give their own testimony, leading the parents to pwn said teacher. | |

Shin in Sailor Nothing like both Ivan Bezdomnies has the issue of sitting on a huge story that involves magic and stuff almost no one will believe. She's sitting on it and plans to publish it as a book one day. In the end, she does, refusing to publish it as fiction despite her publisher's insistence. | |

Survival of the Fittest has Matt Wittany and Ken Lawson, the former of which has apparently interviewed just about everybody in Southridge High School at some point, including recluse Bobby Jacks. More recently we've been introduced to Amber Whimsy, whose articles are infamous for regularly invading students' private lives, with some help from her best friend Paige Single. She's more of a subversion though, as none of her stories of this nature have ever made it to print. |

Veronica Mars was on her high school newspaper staff as a photographer, and later did some actual journalizing herself. The school's television news program was a common sight. (This is not as unbelievable as it sounds; it's the only public school in a county filled with people who would be paying large metric buttloads of property and other taxes.) In college, she joined the newspaper, but didn't stay; the paper was hip-deep in the factionalization of the campus, and Veronica wanted no part. | |

It's unknown if Mika will become an Intrepid Reporter in the future, but a character from HappinessCharge Pretty Cure!, Miyo Masuko, who looks like an adult version of Mika, is an Intrepid Reporter. Tada Kanae from HeartCatch Pretty Cure! goes on the same hunt however she only wants a picture of them, exposing them never comes up but she gives up over time. Her Monster of the Week turned people to stone with its camera. |

Harry Kim on Star Trek: Voyager claimed to have edited the newspaper of Starfleet Academy as a student, breaking the story of the Maquis rebellion and getting the faculty and the student body polarized and taking sides. He reveals this information to Neelix, spurring him to investigate the ongoing espionage and sabotage situation aboard Voyager. Neelix, the ship's cook, is then inspired to use his television program A Briefing With Neelix to do some Real Journalism, and Neelix, and ultimately plays an important role in the unmasking of spy Michael Jonas.

The Whatever Happened to...

Madman tries to get back at Robot by framing him for various misdeeds, but Robot eventually exposes his deceit. | |
