HOL

The Daily Prophet is not only the most famous, but also the most read wizarding newspaper in Wizarding Britain and Ireland. It is based in London, or more specifically, in Diagon Alley, with Barnabas Cuffe as its head editor. Because of its influence, The Daily Prophet is often used as a mouthpiece of the Ministry of Magic, who tells its own version of events with little objectivity. The Daily Prophet also has two other editions; The Evening Prophet, whose name is pretty self-explanatory, and Sunday Prophet, which is the weekend edition.

Because The Daily Prophet is known for its Ministry-related bias, your task is to write an article at least 100 words long about an event in the wizarding world where the Ministry is painted in a good or at least positive way. Your article must abide by all HOL rules and be of your own creation.

For 15 Hoots and beans, post your text as a reply to this thread by April 30th 11:59 pm HOL time at the latest.

Scholarships for Future Aurors!
Everyone knows that Auror training is rather expensive, but there is a huge need for new aurors. With that in mind, the Ministry of Magic has decided to hand out scholarships to students that have at least ten NEWT’s, receiving Outstanding in at least seven of them. The scholarships pay, not only for school, but also for food and boarding while attending the academy. Students interested are being asked to send in a copy of their resume, along with filling out an application explaining a bit about themselves. All applications will be looked over carefully and the ones that fit qualifications will be accepted. Good luck!
