In a comedic look at the meaning of civilization during the early years of the Mars Virus, two self-absorbed reporters from the Galactic News Agency fly from star to star to record the latest in events.These broadcasts are instantly sent to their myriad of alien viewers on a thousand worlds.

Unfortunately for earth, the series on their repulsively odd bipedal appearance is about to come to an end because events on their world are boring to the normal tripedal masses. The show is slated for cancellation due to lack of sponsorship.

The outcast earthlings come up with a surprise of their own that shocks the reporters and which brings in a new age for mankind an age that may include takeover of the galactic regime, unless the virus spreads to other worlds.
