Resistance Radio [Sci-Fi]

"Politics is more my thing so I'll take the Senate story." Where the fuck are my cigarettes, he thought to himself. "You really have to be a deeply masochistic individual to get stuck into it too much." God dammit. Did he leave them at home? "Thankfully, the only thing I hate more than all of humanity is me." This was not shaping up to be his favorite day.

- the first result on google for 'utter defeat man' that wasn't a meme

Speciality
Investigative journalism, mainly by way of information trading and brokerage. Schmoozing the people who know more than he does, trading them a scrap for a steak, that sort of thing.

Origin
Alvin lost his mother at a young age and was brought up by his dad, who instilled in him a love of the historical greats of journalism of Earth's distant past. Keeps a habit of ending every broadcast with an Edward Murrow quote - "Good night, and good luck." About as fantastical he gets is an occasional reread of the ancient graphic novel Transmetropolitan. Whereas loyal citizens worship the Emperor, and the pious worship their deity of choice, he worships Woodward and Bernstein. Prides himself on searching for the truth, and sharing it, no matter how inconvenient or dangerous.

Resistance Radio [Sci-Fi]

Alvin sat heavily at his desk, leafing through reports. "Let's see. The little green men are throwing a parade, how nice. Hal-2 got snuffed, that's... that's a little worrying. Gem squad's wiped out, hands up who's surprised by that. And oh look, Senate's suicidal again. Christ."

He pinched the bridge of his nose and tried to remind himself that he promised to stop drinking early in the day. A compromise with his better angels was reached in the form of half a glug of bourbon in his coffee.

"Eventually they're going to realize that no matter how big their group is, it's not going to mean much until they get universal support. As long as there's at least a handful of senators that aren't on board, the Emperor can still claim it's a renegade faction and disappear them without anybody really caring. I mean I get that they got into politics to do good things, but you sort of have to get the politics out of the way first."
