Organization
As previously mentioned, the ANN was originally founded by three major networks. Governing this organization is a committee consisting of Network Executives and shareholders, however the Chairman of the Committee serves as the swing-vote, but also directs the flow of the meeting.Headquarters
Located on (name), the ANN's recently relocated headquarters is a popular attraction for many protests. As a result, a security detachment is awlays on hand, monitoring the situation. After the building was set on fire, the ANN did not hesitate in fortifying the lower floors of the building with defensive walls surrounding the perimeter. Entry into the building is usually quite easy, despite the numerous security protocols one must pass in order to enter. Guided tours are given daily as the building also doubles as a News Museum of sorts, chronicling Mass Media since early times.Coverage/Conduct
In order to ensure coverage, local agencies are greatly pressured by their larger corporate sponsors for sensational news stories. To deal with this, some networks have taken an almost paparazzi approach to getting the latest story, while others focus on more humanitarian efforts. The ANN attempts to verify many of these stories, but the sheer bulk of media does not always allow for such meticulous investigation. Several local agencies associated with the ANN have fallen under criminal investigation for invasion of privacy, slander and libel amongst other serious charges as they attempt to catch the next big story.StarCast 9
