The Irony of The Cavalier Daily, Jefferson’s University Paper: Pandering to Opinion and Lacking Freedom
Perhaps you remember the cartoon shown above and our discussion; or, maybe you remember our critique of the Cavalier Daily when it published an article loosely based on Catholic pseudo-science that claimed having sex around a “natural planning cycle” is more effective than condoms. Let’s not forget the “tear down this wall” column which said the freedom wall was “nothing more than a cheap, interactive platitude.” And finally, take an opinion from the same publication about StreakTheLawn.com (now shut down) which explained that exposing seedier aspects of college life was a “risk” to UVA’s reputation.
Do you see a trend with the Cavalier Daily, University of Virginia’s “independent newspaper?” We do… and so do others.
