"SHIT! HE'S ON THE FRONT PAGE! THEY'VE BROKEN IN! THE INVASION IS BEGINNING! RUUUUUUUN"
LETTER FROM THE EDITOR
Good Morning Newgrounds! Welcome to the only weekly newspaper on Newgrounds. Special thanks to @Malachy for upgrading his tier on Patreon. It means more than you know. To give back to the site, I intend on taking my July Patreon earnings and putting them towards the prize fund for the NGADM. Speaking of which, The Newgrounds Audio DeathMatch is nearing the end of the Audition Round. ThatJohnnyGuy's podcast The Off the Wall Show is featuring prominent members of Newgrounds. PringusMcDingus is a staple of the Movies Portal and milkypossum is becoming the standard of the Audio Portal. The Flash Portal History will waste six minutes of your time, I assure you that you will enjoy it though. Tell the members of the site what Newgrounds means to you. This week's phonograph is featuring songs submitted for the Audition Round of the NGADM. With that out of the way, here are the hip happenings of Newgrounds!

@ForNoReason is a well-known voice actor here on Newgrounds. He made a mockery of voice acting demos that were flooding the site at the time. @scottmale24, who we last saw in Issue NO. 6 for Epic Quest! The NG Choose-Your-Own MSPaint Adventure! and Issue NO. 55 for How I Buy Petrol?, decided to animate ForNoReason's demo. He called it Six Minutes of Nothing.
"I made that demo in sort of a response to TomaMoto's demo from the time. His was brilliant! It was beautifully produced, well acted and just a classic to this day. I had no skills and no talent so I was trying to be silly ironic counter culture to his. I think scottmale24 messaged me on Newgrounds telling me after he posted it. I watched it like a hundred times. Seeing my work animated like that brought tears to my eyes. I still love it. Im still so humbled by it. Two creators who have helped me the most are probably scottmale24 and Carbonwater. I know there are more, and ill probably have someone angry at me, but those guys are the best."
-ForNoReason
"Back in 2005 I did a movie called Bitchin' Camaro, and since then I've been dying to animate something like that again. One lonely night back in March I had been browsing the Audio Portal for one reason or another (or For No Reason?) and I came across ForNoReason's submission A Voice Acting Demo? I loved his awkward charm, gave it a pretty generic review, and then completely forgot about it. It took me another five months to put two and two together, and I decided to make good on my promise of producing "a long, bland flash movie". It was a complete surprise to him. I think he enjoyed it."

The week can get people down sometimes. With all of the hustle and bustle and action packed drama that entails our lives, sometimes it's nice to just kickback and relax. Here are a few games to play to unwind on this Sunday Morning. This week are games made by @Eggy.
If a game is not loading properly for you, then install the Newgrounds Flash Player. There are instructions on how to do so. If it is still not working or you don't understand, create a thread in the Where is / How to / Help! Forum for assistance.
It has been a long week and I have another long week coming up, then it is time for a vacation at the beach. It is something that I have been needing for quite some time to rest these weary bones. I've been really addicted to GrantTheHierophant's raps lately. The Newgrounds Audio DeathMatch is always an exciting time here on the site. Be sure to check out ThatJohnnyGuy's podcast Off the Wall. We feature his mascot in the banner of The Tank Tribune and have featured the podcast in its own segment. The Interviewer will be making a return since I have had more time to work on it. Thanks for reading. I hope you have a fantastic morning.
The Tank Tribune is a part of Dohn's Desk Productions
