Live from the quiet desk
Sources confirm absolutely nothing disturbed the nap.
Tonight's Lead
At nine, News Cat took the desk, straightened the paper, and received one mug. At nine-oh-one, the anchor closed both eyes. The newsroom lowered its voice, the map kept glowing, and every source agreed to call back later. The lead remains unchanged: the suit is pressed, the paws are folded, and sleep has editorial approval.
Note From Management
Dear viewers, the newsroom has reviewed every available development. The desk is occupied. The coffee is within reach. The paper remains directly beneath two folded paws. No further action is expected before a stretch, a blink, or the faint sound of a cupboard opening. Until then, please consider silence the most reliable source currently willing to speak on the record.
