I really liked the idea. Me thinks win conditions are fine as it is, but it might be better if it's lowered to 4 journals, for three reasons that regards mafia, SK and arsonist:

1. If you choose to help mafia and spread false information or misguide the townies, you have the risk of actually being killed by mafia, since those journals would attract attention and you just don't know who's mafia, nor them!

2. If you choose to help the SK or Arsonist, they would probably greatly appreciate this, since those roles are "last-stand" kinds of roles. BUT, you would be an obvious enemy for both mafia and town.

3. If you choose to help the town, mafia will mercilessly target you, all the more so if you are actually spreading useful information.

4. The journalist just write what he thinks, so it might not be so difficult to notice who's arguing or just being a silent listener, just racionalizing and without giving the information, just letting it flow by.

Well, i will try helping you with the backstory ---><---

BACKSTORY: The influx of information is just too great, but people, they don't seem to notice it. He let that information into his mind, he does care about them, he realizes their utmost importance... And he's sick of letting it be buried on scraps. A journalist, that is what he chose to become. Security, laws, homelife, culture, overall changes, big events and small ones too, a journalist writes about everything, he monopolizes the information and make them shine over your eyes, for good... or worse.

Well, kinda different from your base of the backstory, but well, just a contribution.
