"Hello I'm your anchor Batman, it has been quite a while since we were last on air due to a misunderstanding with the channel that was featuring my show. They seemed to think it was showing violence and wasn't family friendly, I was busy at the time and chose to let the matter rest. However I recently had a change of heart and after a small discussion they decided it was in their best interest to put us back on the air," Batman smirked as he ended his explanation.

"I'm Superman and I'll be serving as the co-anchor as Wonder Woman is out of commission. She was launched into space after a fake pregnancy and hasn't been heard from in a while so I'm here instead," Superman sounded decidedly cheerful that Wonder Woman was floating somewhere in space, "It was pretty crazy i-"

"I think that's more than enough, Superman," Batman cut in silencing Superman with a small flick of his hand. "As he mentioned he will be filling her spot with hopefully less outright flirting and a bit more professionalism. Which of course means we will have a new weatherman for the time being so please welcome, Cyborg," Batman gestured off screen and Cyborg awkwardly stood next to the green screen.

"I'm not sure I actually want to do this," Cyborg admitted looking severely uncomfortable on camera.

"Well I needed someone and you were nearby so my desire overrides your feelings, got it?" Batman growled not looking up from the papers he had been looking over, "If anything you're just lucky I didn't add some weather tracking devices to your hardware."

"Yes," a resigned sigh and slightly scared look accompanied Cyborg's agreement. "Alright, it appears the weather will be fairly consistent with what it normally is across the world, except in parts of China where heavy rain may lead to major flooding." At first glance it would seem that Cyborg was decent at his job, but looking closer one might notice his voice was rising and his mechanical parts started sparking in discomfort.

"Um, are you ok?" Superman asked when Cyborg started stuttering and flashing. After a few moments of breaking down he short circuited and had to be removed, this brought the camera's attention back to Batman and Superman.

"Get him off set, I don't need another fire starting," Batman called off camera to where Cyborg had fallen and was quickly becoming a fire hazard. Aquaman ran in and doused the malfunctioning man with a blast of water which didn't improve the situation. He ended up just dragging Cyborg's twitching form slowly across the ground until they finally out of the way and a medical crew could step in.

"Continuing on, we'll be getting to the news," Batman spoke in his usual gravelly tone almost entirely ignoring the situation. Superman glanced at him, but Batman ignored it and pressed on, "In a recent poll my popularity is off the charts with all demographics, the rest of the heroes took a serious dip after a slight blunder on our most recent mission. Despite assuring the mayor of central city that the explosions weren't our fault he seemed rather annoyed. Sure a few people were injured, but collateral damage comes with the job, so don't worry about it."

"In other news," Superman continued trying to steer off the grave topic Batman so easily spoke about, "A series of new orphanages are being built in Gotham due to a charitable donation by Bruce Wayne, he's a great guy right Batman?"

"Plus he's quite attractive, in my opinion. The final matter we are discussing isn't about handsome men, like Bruce Wayne and myself," Batman smirked, but rolled his eyes when Superman piped in, "or me."

"We will be discussing clowns and this goes beyond the clowns I normally face in Gotham, apparently there is an outbreak, let me be perfectly clear I will use the full force of the Justice League to crush anyone who dares wear a clown costume," Batman spoke in a dark tone that sent shivers down the spines of everyone in the room.

"Guys look at the costume I'm wearing for Halloween," Green Arrow walked onscreen interrupting the broadcast dressed in a clown suit.

"Everyone get him," Batman growled before tackling the other man sending him to the floor, "You dare defy me?" A small squeak of apology was all that could be heard before Batman started his assault.

Once again the broadcast quickly shut down as the set started falling apart, but ratings were through the roof.


A/N

Yeah, I left this story alone for a while because I wasn't feeling any inspiration and because I took the summer off for the most part.

So this chapter has a bit of overlap with the one of the more recent chapters of "Public Service Announcements of Justice", if you want the full story about Wonder Woman you can check there, but it isn't required to enjoy this story so don't feel too pressured. However I expect Wonder Woman will make her comeback soon enough, so if you miss her don't worry.

Thanks for reading and please let me know what you think.
