The Corellian Times was a Corellian news agency and one of the major financial NewsNets. Its main focus was on covering business and financial news and reporting. However, the newspaper also covered more traditional topics, such as criminal affairs, social events, or galactic exploration.

History


During the last decade of the Old Republic, the Corellia Times reporter Horace Korr covered the kidnapping and murder of Felicia Covington on Rori.

During the Imperial Period, the Galactic Empire supported the Corellia Times in order to limit the publication of its non-Human rival, the Herglic Trading Journal, another major financial NewsNets.

During the Galactic Civil War, some of its employees were Finn Shallo, Hol't Deb Orah, Ista Kezever, Jural, Halden Wes, Vani Korr, and Marles Jacobe.

After the Battle of Yavin, the Corellia Times covered the Life Day events in Dearic, Wayfar, and Doaba Guerfel. In the meantime, Vani Korr investigated the criminal organization known as the Meatlumps and wrote the article "Who are the Meatlumps?," which was published in the Corellia Times. Around the same time, Ista Kezever published "," an article about the repair of viewscreens. Marles Jacobe later covered the Battle of Restuss, on Rori.

In 1 ABY, Corellia Times covered the relocation of the Gowix Computers company from Corellia to Corulag.

Behind the scenes
