Vox News had been known to twist the truth at the whim of Gleeman Vox, usually praising Ace Hardlight while painting other contestants, notably Ratchet, in a bad light, describing him in one instance as a "Mafia Crime boss who hated sunshine, puppies, and chocolate."
Vox News met its end along with DreadZone itself when Vox set the Battledome to self-destruct as a final test for Ratchet. Dallas and Juanita take the opportunity to deliver a much more honest and humble view on the action when they realize Ratchet is their only hope of survival. Ratchet succeeds and ultimately leaves Vox to die aboard DreadZone Station, while Dallas and Juanita escape with all of the other survivors.
