About This Book

A fast-paced tale set in a technologically advanced news industry where reporters not only forecast events but actively influence them. When a rival paper issues public predictions that imperil a reporter and a politician, newsroom leaders weigh staged interventions, protective measures, and calculated compromises to preserve reputation and circulation. Through incidents of engineered rescues, editorial bargaining, and competitive sabotage, the work examines media power, the ethics of manufactured news, and the blurred line between anticipating the future and making it happen.
