Storyline

DJ is excited to be appointed editor of her school's newspaper, but is put in an awkward position when Kimmy expects favoritism. When Kimmy's writing isn't up to par, DJ fires her, inspiring the former to start an independent gossip newsletter. Michelle annoys Stephanie by echoing her every word. Jesse and Joey are hired to shoot a new commercial for 'Wake Up San Francisco', but a rivalry between Danny and Becky over on-screen presence makes filming uncomfortable. Written by Melissa
