Yorkman Title.JPG

The Yorkman is a small newspaper run by a group of Outsiders primarilly from York, but also with the help of freelancers and undercover reporters from around the island. We will bring you local and island-wide news coverage, exclusive interviews, and hopefully some entertaining columnists as well.

Issue 2 is now online!

Contribute to Issue 3!

The Yorkman team is now starting work on our third issue. In this issue we'd like to cover a wider range of stories than before, from a wider area of the island. If there's anything happening in your village (or patch of jungle) that you'd like us to cover, get in touch. This is a perfect opportunity to promote your activities, raise awareness of your cause, or just bring your settlement into the public eye, so dont be shy!.

We haven't forgotten the fine folk of York, though. In issue 3 we hope to run an article on one of our most famous local groups, the Order of Patriots. If you've had dealings with them, witnessed an Order operation, or just have an opinion, we want to hear from you. We're particularly interested in stories of the Order, how their actions have affected people, and any information you may have on who they really are and what they really want. As the Order are obviously a powerful group, please state if you wish to remain anonymous, or to not be directly quoted - your response will still be extremely valuble to us.

Contact Us

We can be contacted either through our user talk page or via e-mail.

Submissions

Submissions are probably best e-mailed to us, or you could post them here. We're looking for any breaking news, potential interviewees, budding columnists, and so on.

Shameless Self-Promotion

We love it! If you want a little section promoting your group, email us and we'll consider it. Extra credit given for humour or just being really clever. Keep it short, add a little picture, and it might just get in. Or pretend its news and submit a whole story...

General Policies

To protect our journalists, we will never reveal the identities of our reporters, and will offer similar protection to our sources, interviewees, and columnists, should they so desire.

The Yorkman will strive to report the truth at all times, and to avoid presenting opinions and guesses as factual information.

Also, Page 3 Pirates has been scrapped. Sorry.
