While we are thrilled that members of The Flyer are reading our blog everyday and are finally reporting on important issues, we still have a few...suggestions.
Firstly- why does the Chapstick article make it on page 1, but the 4-2 article get listed as an Editorial? Yea, we know it was written as an Editorial but seeing as its actual housing policy, it really should have been approached as news. (...It's ok-we get it-you are still learning. But how will you know it's wrong if we don't tell you?)
Secondly- you all need to do some serious research into the new city council. Terry Cohen (our new Council President) and Deborah Campbell (the new Vice President) were both instrumental in the drafting of 4-2. Did you know that? No, probably not. But you would have known it if you did your homework. Additionally, Tim Spies has been an extremely vocal advocate of chucking out college students and replacing them with single families for years- if you guys want to be considered news, you need to get on that- stat. Reputable news sources like yourselves are supposed to be the watchdogs for governments from the federal to the local level- so get out your binoculars and park it people! You've got work to do!
...Again though, we were very impressed by this weeks improvements- keep it up. Go Gulls!!

all of the stuff you write here is editorial, it's definitely not news.
Quite right anon 11:06- that is why we are a blog and not a newspaper.
