The Starfleet News Service is a department of the Federation Starfleet. Its mandate is to provide less formal media for the interest of Starfleet personnel.
History[]
In 2375, Starfleet News Service correspondents traveled to several different Federation, allied and non-allied worlds (and even the Q Continuum) to report and write feature articles for print or produce feature segments for broadcast. (ST reference: New Worlds, New Civilizations)
- The Starfleet News Service is distinct from other Federation media, such as the similarly-named Federation News Service. It presumably is similar in form and function to the American military's Armed Forces Radio and Television Service.
