News program on the IWN news network, hosted by Julia Donovan. Inside Access covers topics of general interest, as well as global news bulletins. The program gained access of the existence of a foreign mineral believed to be known as trinium, and attempted to disclose a project known only as "Prometheus."

The United States Air Force prevented Donovan and her boss, Al Martell, from going forward with this knowledge of Inside Access was allowed an exclusive look at the X-303. But instead of committing the tape to a vault for the day the project became public knowledge, the rogue arm of the N.I.D. sabotaged the operation, preventing Inside Access from ever getting an inch of footage.

In exchange for special access to the Stargate program Donovan and her program were willing to help disseminate cover stories at important moments. After wealthy businessman Alec Colson revealed the existence of "alien life" to the world, Colonel Samantha Carter visited the set and showed an example of a holographic alien, identical to the one Colson shared with the public.

Al Martell was the producer of the program during the Prometheus incident.
