The Public Affairs News Program of Meet the Press is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Fourth Estate with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, avant-garde cinema, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 21.346 billion Meet the Pressians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, corrupt, liberal, pro-business government prioritizes Industry, with Administration and Education also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of News Room. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Meet the Pressian economy, worth a remarkable 3,908 trillion News a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 183,123 News, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,002,535 per year while the poor average 17,067, a ratio of 58.7 to 1.

The government subsidises medicines of mass destruction, pieces of iron pyrite are believed to be worth their weight in gold, the Hanging Gardens account for half of News Room's water use, and offering a builder a cup of tea is a legal minefield. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Meet the Press's national animal is the Journalist, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Agnostic Pantheism.

Meet the Press is ranked 285,401^st in the world and 798^th in NationStates for Safest, scoring 3.19 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
