Portland Punisher

Newscaster

A condensed history of The Portland Punisher's career was released in the form of eight news stories from the fictitious Portland Guardian. These stories were released as promotional material, and briefly appear in the film.

The script was written as a challenge from story creator Courtney Lynahan, who challenged Chris Hall to write a dark comedy.

Along with the overall satire of news coverage, two brief moments in the film, featuring commentary on the President, and the President's critics, satirize two modern mainstream news organizations.
