Newshounds and its continuing series Newshounds II are a long-running Furry Web Comic by Thomas K. Dye (the author of, among other things, Something Happens). It's about a human woman, Lorna, and the six (originally four) dogs, one cat and one rat she has adopted and employed to work in television news. The original strip lasted from November, 1997 to December, 2006. The continuation started in July, 2007 and ended on September 29th, 2014. Rebooted as Newshounds Remastered in March 2016.In the original Newshounds comic strip run, the team ran KPET, a television channel operating out of Lorna's home. Kevin J. Dog was the cameraman. Wolfram Blitzen and Renata Fayre (both dogs) were the news anchors. Alistair Katt (a cat) was the meteorologist. Sam Shepherd (a dog) was the sports reviewer. Ferris the Rat was the janitor. Rochelle O'Shea (a dog) was later hired then permanently adopted as an on-location news correspondent. Della (a dog), Kevin's steady girlfriend later in the story, was hired as a technician, then was stranded in a remote location after her owners abandoned her, but had moved in permanently by Newshounds II.In Newshounds II, the comic developed a more page-oriented layout, with the entire team moving on to Mega News West to moderate video blogs as they slowly work to build lives of their own. | |

Genre Savvy: Granted Sam takes it too far, but he has some very realistic notions of relationships while on active military duty. Lorna also is not impressed when something bad happens to Alistair after he rants about 9/11. | |

T-Word Euphemism: Whereas the original Newshounds was almost completely devoid of harsh language, Darker and Edgier Newshounds II has some characters frequently cursing aloud, with their still-obvious words masked with strategic scribbles over most (but not all) of the letters. Sam, Slab and Randy do this the most. | |

Straw Character: Ferris is one, not for any political or philosophical position, but for fans of any part of pop culture Dye doesn't like. If any performer or genre is going to be lampooned in the comic, Ferris is invariably portrayed as being slavishly devoted to them. (examples include Céline Dion, Britney Spears and of course his long-time celebrity crush Tori Spelling) | |

Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: Lorna's parting words: "You guys do whatever you want. Blow up the house. Nuke the neighborhood. Organize a terrorist strike against the Pork Council for not having strict enough standards for fat content." Ferris' bad day: "First, I accidentally tripped Renata with the microphone cord... then I dropped the Mayor's Palm Pilot into his jacuzzi... then, as if it couldn't get any worse, I put too much ketchup on my curly fries." Renata's interview with adult film star Angie Lishus: "Let me get this straight... you're not doing a TV special on my work for charity... I came all the way down here just so you could pester me with some stupid questions about Virgiltech... and you still won't pay for my jumbo parsley?" | |

Asshole Victim: Randy, Della's cousin who used Sam for his money, cheated on him, got Della kicked out by her owners, and sold out Rochelle, was sold to a lab and experimented on. Not even her new eyepatch earned her any sympathy, although the fact that she clearly felt no guilt over selling Rochelle up the river and felt KPET owed her in a big way for the information didn't help. | |

Bestiality Is Depraved | |
Newshounds (Webcomic) / int_c3fbac64 | comment |
Bestiality Is Depraved: Slab Hannibal, a human who has sex with dogs. The Bestiality Is Depraved trope is played with — the dogs in the series are sentient and verbal, and are perfectly capable of making informed decisions and saying yes or no, sidestepping a lot of the Squicky moral consent questions usually associated with sex with animals. But Hannibal rapes his canine bodyguards. He tried to rape Sam, but he fought back. | |

Shout-Out: To TV Tropes or Websnark, with this page's reference to Cerebus Syndrome. And to Monty Python's Flying Circus here with an extra: And a subtle name-combining one to The Chronicles of Prydain here with the name of the "Grape Nuts for Tots" program head, Taran Dallben. A lampshaded Shout Out to The Shining here. To Top Cat in the third panel of this strip. To Nin Wah of Commander Kitty in the last panel of this strip. To Scooby-Doo here with City Councilman Fred Daffney, who's decided to prepare the following year's haunted house early... and planning to build it in an actual cemetery. To Edgar Allan Poe's The Cask of Amontillado here. | |

Charles Atlas Superpower: Turns out that AOL Time Warner Corporate military's takeover of Starbuck's outlets has been largely unsuccessful. Why? Because the Starbuck's baristas wipe the floor with AOL Time soldiers. How? Because they know how to "handle caffeine crazed coffee addicts." | |

Corrupt Corporate Executive | |
Newshounds (Webcomic) / int_cbe687ab | comment |
Corrupt Corporate Executive: Hal O'Peridol was more delusional than corrupt, but then there's General Swallowemup and several executives that the KPET crew interviewed back in the gag-a-day days. | |

Cerebus Syndrome: Can anyone still remember when this was a light but somewhat political Gag A Day comic? | |

O.O.C. Is Serious Business | |
Newshounds (Webcomic) / int_e83f211c | comment |
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: One would think that flying in a helicopter with an 19-year-old amateur pilot who was freaking out over sharing a cockpit with a rat (Ferris) would have appealed to Rochelle's dangerlust. It didn't... because she was pregnant (but didn't know it yet) and her maternal instincts had subconsciously kicked in. | |
