Sovan

Sovan was a male Bolian and chief Earth correspondent for Bolarus and You.

In 2379 Sovan attended a press conference where Kant Jorel, the Federation Council's liason to the press announced the candidates for the special election for the President of the United Federation of Planets. After Admiral William Ross's name was announced as a candidate for president, Sovan asked whether the Council had any comment on the fact that his Starfleet sources said that Ross had no intention of running.

A few months later in January, 2380, Sovan appeared on the news program "Illuminating the City of Light". On this program, Sovan expressed his opinion that President Nanietta Bacco had been doing a poor job in her first few months in office. As a result, Kant Jorel would not call on Sovan at the next Council press briefing. (ST novel: Articles of the Federation)
