Beloved CT readers,
Hello everybody and welcome to another lovely week at the CT.
This is our last issue before spring break, and also will be our last issue until March 25. We originally had an issue planned for March 18, the week we got back, but after discussing it with staff we decided to not publish …
One of the most important aspects of developing news stories is timeliness. A story that breaks on Monday may no longer be interesting or worthwhile as front page news by the time we get to Thursday.
Journalistically and ethically speaking, any professional newspaper would never allow a source to read a story before publication. And while we are a college/student newspaper, we still hold ourselves to professional standards.
This week I have found myself in an interesting situation, and one that I didn’t expect to find myself in for a few weeks. It looked very promising that the production of the paper would finish tonight before I got a chance to sit down and write my blog entry.
Everybody who opened up the print edition of last week was bound to find several small hidden surprises. The Features Front, a mainstay in the Features section, printed missing the background that was designed for it. A&E had several floating black boxes, which were originally the music review boxes.
