@John Prudden '78 I am a College Alumnus and, from time to time, read Spectator. For the last 6 months or so I have not seen any comments, whatsoever. Is Spectator suppresssing the views of the university community? A newspaper is more than reporting stories as they see them, it is also to air judgments and opinions about them. It has become all to common the post a story and NOT allow any comment.
I’m too far removed. Make Spectator do its job! Frankly, I think this has something with the Graduate Union of all things.
@Zack Abrams Hi! Bwog’s Managing Editor here: We’ve noticed that too; our theory is that Spectator changed their comment system to one where they have to manually approve comments, but has not been approving them at all. It frustrates us too because we’ve noticed we get more annoying comments on our site since theirs is down. Feel free to comment on Bwog articles though, we’ll always be here!
@Sofia Spectator has comments though?
@Zack Abrams I haven’t seen a Spec post recently (from this school year) with any approved comments on it. If you have, can you link the post? Thanks
