Spar is a private news network based on Cariocecus that acts as one of the few dissenting voices within the People's Republic. Its host (and owner) Frank Yoo is a classical liberal who is perhaps the most prominent critic of ARES on Cariocecus, at least one of the few who has kept his head. Yoo uses Spar as a means of debating controversial topics, platforming both defenders and critics of ARES. His pro-government co-host William Mitchell is one of his most common opponents, though this is by design. Spar is also notable for its appeal throughout the Trappist System, not only Cariocecus. It has particularly wide appeal on Qaf, where the population is significantly less trusting of ARES despite the alliance between their states.
