My alma mater calls this crap journalism?

I’m going through severe Forensics withdrawal. I greatly enjoyed coaching Bowling Green State University’s team and judging at the Collegiate Forensics Association “Winter Weekend” National tournament this past weekend in Montreal. While the team easily won this championship for a sixth straight year without me, I would have rather been competing.

I’m even missing my old job of PR Chair for Pi Kappa Delta, the Forensics honorary. On the train ride home it was bittersweet as I dialed the BGNews and handed the phone and tournament stats to our new PR Chair.

I just logged on to see if the campus newspaper had published anything, only to be shocked and angered by this:

Miss-leading America by Amy Dillon, the BGNews

But now the votes are in and we have another tarantula-eyed-peroxide-blonde hussy to represent America. I mean, what is there not to love? She cares about world peace, she can walk in heels while looking forward and.... and... Well, I really can't think of anything else good about her.

Voicing your opinion is one thing, but this has no thesis, structure or supporting arguments. I am so angry right now, and will be posting a comment at the end of this article… just as soon as this stupid, student-run disaster of a newspaper prints something about my beloved Forensic team’s victory!

  1. How rude and INGORANT!!! I have a sash for Amy Dillon, it reads, "MISS-informed"!

  2. I agree! I'll be drafting my response soon. I ran into Janelle Z. tonight on campus who said she and Becky M. already did, but it's not showing up yet... not sure why. Perhaps like comments here on my blog, they have to be approved before they appear.
