Bad press
One would think that a member of the press, (more specifically, the editor of a newspaper) would understand when the “freedom of the press” is inappropriate. This week, the editor of the UPEI Cadre has shown that to be perspicacious is not innate. A decision to republish the “Muslim cartoons” from a Danish newspaper has led to the issue from this week being banned from campus, and the story has been repeated from sea to shining sea. The university president has weighed into the fro, and the campus police have shown their ability to show up too late for the party (the copies were hidden elsewhere).
