Incorruptible Reporter

Reporter: Good evening, everyone, and yes, you are not mistaken, we are standing here, right outside the courtroom waiting for Little Pig and Wolf to get out. This case started quite a long time ago and the matter has still not been resolved. (Pig gets out of the courtroom all sweaty and exhausted, he is wearing glasses and his suit looks like he just got out of fighting.) Finally! We have been waiting on you since 8 in the morning and we are determined to find out how everything is turning out for you, Piggy! Is the case going just like you expected it?
Little Pig: (His voice trembling from nervousness) Not really but I strongly believe in my victory, since I also believe in justice. My two other friends popped off their hooks from the paws of this worthless creature and you know, you seem to be the only person who believes what I am saying is true! That wolf is such a professional liar that even our achieved liar Fox cannot compare to his cheeky ways of making stuff up!
Reporter: But Pig, what do you think of the judge? Did our old wise Owl believe in this?
Little Pig: I am telling you, he is hyp-no-sing everyone! Even I believed his lies for a second! I don’t know how he does it, but listen, all the females in that room got charmed by that creature! I couldn’t believe it, but even my wife dropped a tear when that wolf opened his wide chap!
Reporter: That is terrible! He, who has murdered your closest and dearest pigs, dares to behave so filthily!

(Now Wolf himself gets out of the room with his paw on the judge’s shoulder, both laughing…)

Reporter: This is unheard-of! Mr. Wolf, I see you are too busy now, but I think all of us in the Woods want to ask you one simple question…How does it feel to be a killer of the two individuals and doesn’t your conscience torture you from time to time?
Judge: Look here, you good-for-nothing reporter! This here is my buddy and best friend, understand? There is no way I would let anyone talk to my buddy like this!
Wolf: There, there, judge Owl, I am begging you, don’t spend all this time and health for no reason. In fact, Mr. Reporter, we are going to this courtroom after party to celebrate my yet unannounced victory. Right, judge Owl?
Owl: Absolutely, you named it right, your victory!
Wolf: Well, since you seem so interested in this case, Mr. Reporter, I cannot find one reason why you shouldn’t join us, have a huge dinner consisting of the food I am sure you will find delicious, and I am pretty sure your beloved July will be there! (He winks.)
Little Pig: Look at him! I was not lying to you! This is just unbelievable!
Reporter (didn’t listen to a word Pig has just said): Sounds good to me!

(Reporter throws the microphone away and all three, Wolf, judge, and reporter leave, laughing really loud.)

Svetlana you may enjoy the film Hoodwinked as the issues of propoganda and deception seem to appeal to you!

Interesting and revolutionary approach. I was attracted by the title and was wondering how incorruptible reporter you are. haha..But the story was a irony to the title. And such ironic things like what the you did happen in our life. When we expect a happy ending, we will be disappointed much more.

Hi Svetlana, I really liked your post. It shows the other truth of "justice" we perceive nowadays. Unfortunately, corruption is a big part of the politics' and the justice's world. The way to wrote the story was amazing utilizing very good connectors between the ideas. The ideas are shown in a clear manner and the post overall makes sense. I believed your story!
