Oh... my god? Ghost Reporters.

Imagine it. Their office is in the Zone. They literally FEED of hunting for The Next Big Scoop! And Revealing The Truth! Every honest reporter that got silenced for getting a little too close to the facts. The bloody, beating, heart of societies underbelly.

Every Lois Lane that had no Kryptonian to stop some rich and powerful jackals putting them in the ground.

Well Death sure didn't stop THEM! They STILL want answers! But now they have co-wokers. Oh~ and SUPERPOWERS! And best part?

The newly appointed KING is going too and from the living world. That must mean it's okay now, RIGHT? Your majesty? You're not a RAGING HYPOCRITE, aaaaare you? :) 🎤

And... look. Danny knows full well what these piranhas are up too. He's not stupid. But Madeline Fenton raised a lot of things. Fool? Not one of um. That a LOT of reporters with sharp, sharp teeth and bloodlust in their eyes. He wants to half-live.

I can imagine him calling Bruce.

Clark: It's not just me. This is suspicious right?

Bruce*Who already checked out the town*: Clark. There is nothing suspicious about Amity's paper.

Clark*internal screaming*: Bruce? Are you... Feeling ok?

Bruce: You are too invested. Too emotionally connected. Take a step back.

Bruce is smirking cause he knows. He knows all too well. He wandered into town and was accosted. But at least he knows what is happening. And can use it to drive Clark up the wall.

Not to mention it's a really, REALLY valuable source of information. Honest, literally impossible to buy or corrupt, and impossible to hack. The A.C. is a solid brick of nearly free information gathering delivered daily. They've even, at his request (citing safety concerns) agreed to keep all reporting Brucie and Batman seperate.

Frankly, this is what Clark gets for laughing at Bruce's NEMESIS on the PTA.

Enjoy Jerry, Clark.

Jerry gets invited to the next Wayne gala. Clark is losing his damn mind. Nothing suspicious! He's green! Bruce! He's green!

Bruce: Being non human or meta human should not impact his ability to work Clark. I expected better of you.

Clark: He doesn't have a heartbeat! .... You know! You know what's going on! Tell me!

Bruce: I am not divulging others medical information when they haven't committed a crime.

Clark? Is not a happy man. Jerry got the scoop on Luthor's latest actions before him. How? He's Kryptonian! He can hear everything! How did Jerry do this!?!?!?!?

Lois: Now you know how I felt about you Smallville.

Louis? Eating this shit up. She loves her aliens husband, she really does, but this is VINDICATION for all the shit he's pulled over the years with his superpowers to gain the upper hand in their search for the Scoop. She sometimes has coffee breaks with Jerry when they're working on a Scoop, cuz hey, he's a good source of Intel and reporters got a Code. So long as she isn't stepping on Jerry's terf amd vice versa there's no reason they can't share the Scoops.

Clark is less than pleased.

then Clark or Lois comes across an alternative ghost Lois… or Jon
