CSU Editor Faces peer Review Today

“CSU Editor Faces Peer Review Today”- Mike McPhee- The Denver Post
This article is about J. David McSwane. He is the editor for Colorado State University newspaper. He is the main character in this article, because of his headline he published, “"Taser This, F... Bush.” He wrote this comment as his headline because of what happened to a Florida student. The student got tasered because he spoke out while John Kerry was speaking. He is getting tried for his quote in the newspaper. This stood out to me when I saw it. I thought it was very interesting what he had said. It had not only applied to me by the language he used but to my brother because he goes to CSU. I think now when I see the Arapahoe newspaper that is a student editing this, is it being looked at by the office before it is printed. I think this is a main reason why this quote was so hurtful and rude. Since he is the editor of the newspaper is he the only one who looks at and reads over it, or does the principal of CSU read the newspaper before it is sent out. I hope that this will never happen again because schools should be smarter and not only let the kids be the editor but maybe a administrator should look at it before it gets printed.
