Jeffrey had been a loyal worker at the prosperous American tobacco company he felt he had to turn-against for exposure of a dangerous chemical-production process news-worthy before he was mired in a splash of Hell for capitalism-arms as the company retaliated to expose him (in-turn?) as a questionable emotionally-volatile 'insider' who was not really a great witness/character for the TV-news broadcast outfit suddenly dealing with a stranger gossip tale about frailties in witness-testimony field goals for (social) media...wow.



NEWS PRODUCER: Not really candy for that age-old American carnivale-image.
JEFF: My wife/kids left me; I feel like the Unabomber (or something), sir.
PRODUCER: We've got you ready to find alternate routes of testimony-delivery!
JEFF: Your TV 'company' abandoned me when gossip flew about my insanity, sir.
PRODUCER: Realism for capitalism requires damage-control labors, my friend, ha.
JEFF: What in the Hell will you do now to help me and Americans...spinning?
PRODUCER: Hey, I've got some strategy in sleeve; your words are consumerism.
JEFF: Hey, friend...if you fail to expose chemicals in tobacco products, I'm free.
PRODUCER: None of this is your fault, Jeff; just stay cool; this is TV-onsides.
JEFF: Sure.



Jeffrey was ruined. His reputation was gone. He felt alone and frustrated, while his TV company producer-friend scrambled to get his now-scrambled testimony-interview about deadly-chemicals exposure revealed at his station suddenly disoriented by the tobacco company under review seeking 'active' insider-questions about the witness-reliability problem(s)...and it all made for a capitalism 'sovereignty' games image of mod-Earth storyboard significance (for leviathan/uncertainty).



NEWS-ANCHOR: We've been sidekicks...forever.
PRODUCER: Jeff trusted me, and I'm (still!) committed to him, not you.
ANCHOR: I'll see what can be done, but our TV 'show' can't afford gossip-Hell, ok?
PRODUCER: Do what you can, that's what I'd propose truly...this is insider-review.
ANCHOR: It's devastating around that proverbial round table of opinion(s), ok.
PRODUCER: Americans always find production for Hell, so let's just dream it out.
ANCHOR: Thanx...I'm sorry (for the labors).
PRODUCER: Sure.



The Earth of capitalism and sovereignty negotiations was rich in its past and fated in its future to be filled with the complexity of theories (war/peace) and consumerism was at the heart of it all since the Big '80s, when (social) media 'culture' really began to expand (or take-shape) for comment and review and superstition re-presentations (wow). Jeffrey had become a key faerie-tale protagonist in his own unfolding drama of attempts to reach revelations of disclosures despite 'wonderwalls' of testimony blocks and TV-gossip worry for marketing gravity (for the Ego). How would Jeffrey's only friend (now), a prominent producer-man seeking only clear-lines of news for Earth's governance profit sanity, deliberate/dissect in this Earthling-culture fated production media 'event' worth its weight in silvery helmets (for leviathan/uncertainty)?



FANZINE_INTERVIEW: You found dangerous production process requiring review?
JEFFREY: I soon became the 'subject' of review (myself!).
FANZINE_INTERVIEW: Your company producer pal came-to-rescue for news-art?
JEFFREY: This was a heat-signature reflective of a 'cartoon' optimism (American).
FANZINE_INTERVIEW: America's billiards...things of legalese alliance (no?).
JEFFREY: Sure (cinema-like).
