alright, so a quick thing
My project Welcome to Goldport @welcome-to-goldport is gonna get some big changes.
How you doing with this project? All good?
Yeah! My new job takes up a lot of time, and I don’t have as much time to work on it as I’d like… but I’m still going strong! I’m working on the next comic update, along with a few worldbuilding-related things to release!
(I suppose I should also do some bonus art to prove I’m still, y’know, alive-)
stupid question, but what are the TV stations in Goldport?
If a question has to make me think about something I hadn’t ever thought of before, it’s not a stupid question. This is a fun one! I’m definitely not gonna go over all of them because big city = multiple broadcast stations = literally hundreds of options to pick from in certain parts of the city
Arguably the most popular is GPNT, or Goldport News Today, which is regarded as one of the most accurate news stations in the continent of Corona… by upper/middle class. People in the lower ranks of society would find certain events they heard about/witnessed not even covered by the airbrushed hosts. Most “lower-class” citizens prefer to get their news from the newspaper.
Keystone Pictures has it’s own channel- KPR- it’s basically the in-universe equivalent of hallmark. Want a manufactured feel-good story as bland as white bread? You’ve also got more generic three-letter stations like CTS, CNC, GBS that play movies and shows on a schedule, and GWR, Goldport Weather Radar, for the 24-7 weather watch program.
There’s sports of course, american football, normal football, baseball, boxing and wrestling are the most popular sports in the city. Boxing and Wrestling share are the only ones that don’t share a channel- the other sports are covered either by GSB or SNCS. BRC picks up boxing and will play reruns of old matches when not broadcasting new ones, and wrestling is picked up by GBS.
I love worldbuilding I love worldbuilding
