General I've blogged about science-fiction roleplaying

Back on schedule! On Lore and Legends of the Dezzyverse this week, we're taking a little break from Traveller content to visit the Underdark of D&D. I'll let you all know when I return to Traveller on the Blog
 
My go-to example was the Assassination of Emperor Strephon, mostly because there's a map in the Rebellion Sourcebook that illustrates how that news spreads to the extents of Charted Space. In my opionion, it's more likely that a given citizen of Charted Space would have been exposed to news of this event than not. Sort of like how the Challenger Disaster, Chernobyl, and the 9/11 attacks went world-wide in our history. You'd have to have been fairly remote to not have learned of these events soon after they occurred. There are plenty of locations to where the news didn't spread, but those locations are the exception rather than the rule.
Generally when I run the propagation simulation it does eventually get just about everywhere
