A Week in the Life of the Ol’ Dirty
March 2nd, 2007 by ShoIt’s not easy being the daily paper at the University of Oregon. As the Commentator knows, it’s hard to even publish a couple of issues a term, and it’s difficult to imagine the kind of work it takes for student reporters and editors to push out one a day when not a whole lot happens on campus. I know, I was there.*
However, this means that when news does happen the Oregon Daily Emerald should try to cover it as quickly as possible. Though we here at the Commentator think we put up a good fight when compared to the Emerald’s coverage of campus political news, the Emerald should view the Register Guard as their most formidable opponent (or at least that was what I was taught) especially when it comes to campus news. So, when it doesn’t beat the R-G it’s rather dissapointing, and it’s been a pretty dissapointing term so far.
