Rapture Standard

Rapture Standard is one of many newspapers sold in Rapture. During the Civil War, Andrew Ryan used the newspaper as one of his propaganda tools. Headlines from the paper can be read on the loading screens of BioShock, the loading screens of BioShock 2 Multiplayer, and an advertisement for Arcadia.
==History==
The newspaper covered the major events through out the years of 1959-1960 and provided warnings for the citizens of the recent changes and security measures put in place. The paper sold well until the newspaper's editor had enough of the propaganda and made a headline that angered Ryan, causing the editor to be labeled as traitor and one of Atlas' spies. Rapture Standard ceased operations after Security Order 217 was enabled, as with the rest of the newspaper firms that operated in Rapture such as the Rapture Tribune.
