Born To Run
It was a sunny morning in Boston, and as James was walking across campus he passed the protest.
In the foreground, June O’Connor was front of the camera. June was a student activist who worked for the local TV network as a part time reporter.
She was recording a live news broadcast.
“We’re live at Newtown College in Boston, at the site of the animal rights protest over the controversial decision to build a new research wing paid for by the Seattle animal-export company, Zoo-Lu. Zoo-Lu, founded by Jefferson Peterson in 1964 has bases all along the Ivory Coast, where they capture animals and ship them in crates to Seattle, where they are often sold into captivity. Word on the street is that Peterson’s heir apparent, Scott Peterson is attending Newtown, although an anonymous source at the college indicates that Peterson has been seen partying until 3am in the Back Bay. Just what Zoo-Lu is doing here in Boston remains to be seen. Is the new Peterson hoping to set up an East Coast office? This is June O’Connor, for Channel 5 News.”
While editing video, June O’Connor spotted James in the footage.
“Oh, this is too much. Scott Peterson… just what are you doing?!”
June recorded another piece to camera.
“And in another shocking revelation on this whole Zoo-Lu situation – it appears that Scott Peterson has sent his pet Orangutan to the protest, as a mockery. Scott Peterson, if you’re watching… please call Channel 5 and explain yourself!”
