Set at Cypress Bay High School in Weston, The Paper follows the staff of the student newspaper, The Circuit, from the spirited competition for the position of editor in chief last spring to the mundane but challenging efforts to get out the paper each month.The eight-part series, which airs tonight, is a reality show but in no way a game. There is drama, but none of it is scripted or contrived. These teens are ambitious, passionate about journalism and as serious as Woodward and Bernstein, so tensions occasionally explode into emotional outbursts. There are no rewards beyond personal satisfaction and priceless training for adult life, whether it be in the media or some other occupation.
