The Paper is a reality television show on MTV. The show covers the lives of the Cypress Bay High School newspaper staff, focusing mostly on four senior editors. It is set in Weston, Florida.
The show was originally pitched to Walt Whitman High School in Bethesda, MD, Horace Mann School in Riverdale, NY, and Highland Park High School (University Park, Texas) but the editors and top staff members believed it would be too much of a distraction.
Format
The show typically follows the students' lives during school, during the layout and writing of their paper, and during their free time.
The first episode focused upon the race for the Editor-in-Chief position, which Amanda eventually got.
The second episode followed Amanda's struggle with her new position as the new school year started up.
