The Preferred Narrative, a newspaper for events that never happened

Field notes

The homepage uses a newspaper-front-page architecture rather than a simple chronological blog: desks, a wire section, latest dispatches, most-read rankings, an opinion desk, and a newsroom status block all appear in the visible structure. Stories carry short reading times, invented datelines, bylines, and dates, while the page identifies itself as Vol. I, No. 0. The site explicitly frames its reporting as fiction, so its claims function as comic premises rather than factual news.
