"I can't be held responsible for what my goons were ordered to do!" - Charles Montgomery Burns
After yet another brush with death, Mr. Burns realizes the people of Springfield would rather dance on his grave than celebrate his legacy. But instead of committing various good deeds to restore his reputation, he buys every media outlet in town, except for one holdout: Lisa Simpson's Red Dress Press. As his grip on the fourth estate grows even tighter, we find out if ponies, power outages, and even Milhouse-based misinformation will get Lisa to fold.
