About this image
This mobile screen capture shows a New York Times news article reporting that fan fiction site AO3 was hacked, taking 18 million fan stories offline. The classic black serif NYT headline sits on a minimal white and gray page, with a playful fandom reaction comment visible from an underlying social media app overlay. The mood is lighthearted, capturing the fan community's surprise at mainstream coverage of the popular fandom platform.
