Hey everyone! And thank you very much for your comments.
I'm addressing your question, Wendy, not only because it's a sharp, excellent one, but because I know the answer to it! <g>
Perry White is a Suit who is absent from the DP more than not. When Lois asks about him, she's told he's 'always in Barbados' this time of year. So, even if they called for a Perry White at the editor's desk, he wouldn't have been anywhere in the DP, and quite possibly not even known to whoever answered the phone.
This brings up an interesting thing- well, interesting to me- which I ran up against in this story. I had a good bit of backstory on Perry written that I ended up tossing. I liked it, but felt it drug the whole piece down a bit.
Ok, that's my two cents. And Wendy is keeping me honest because I've asked her to.
Oh, and what alt-world does this occur in? Hmmm...CC Aiken's alt-world? Is that good? I mean, if I'm going to make things up, why not, right?..er...I am right, aren't I?
CC
All of your comments are so appreciated, thanks!
