From Alex's blog:

The CIA now says it will start to monitor blogs, which I have no problem with. I mean, we are the new media, after all. Besides that, we happen to be closer to events and opinions than major print media, so it could be a great source of information on what is going on in the "real world". Sure, many will step up and say this is just the next step in the Zionist/Halliburton world takeover conspiracy, but I think these kinds of opinions speak for themselves.

COMM 101:
This is the sort of change I like to see! I told a group to make the following sentence simpler and more direct:
"While the economic activity of the district is a large concern, I am primarily focused on the situation of selling handguns at gun shows without regulations."
This is what they came up with:
"While local businesses are very important to me, my first priority is the safety of our district."

COMM 228 IMPORTANT!
If possible, before you come to my office to work on editing your interviews you should bring me the music that you want to use (at least a day before). Tape it, or lean it against, my office door if I'm not in.
Clarification: The final radios shows MUST have music. They must be at least 5 minutes long, though they may be longer. They should follow the pattern outlined in Radio: An Illustrated Guide.

From Ryan's blog, this has got to be the strangest blog-related event of the semester:

ok this is crazy! I didn't think anyone outside of class read my web page but apparently I have a following! I got this email in response to my comment that Curtis' decision to give us one piece of meat with very Titoish in thinking....
Dear Sir,
While most of your blogging seems to be connected with some sort of reality (albeit one that I am not familiar with), I was struck by the lack of facts regarding your sandwich commentary. Per your missive, I assumed (correctly, I believe) that you were casting dispersions (and mustard and relish) onto the sandwiches concocted during the glorious reign of one Marshall Broz Tito of Yugoslavia. Now, I’ll grant you that the sandwich experience that you are going through at your eating establishment, Denison University, does not sound like a pleasant way to spend one’s chewing and munching time. But to cast negative commentary @ the late leader that saved Yugoslavia from the maw of the expansionist USSR…well, that’s a cheap blow. To have such a suggestion thrown out by a History major makes me wince even more-so at the lack of proper teaching regarding culinary history being practiced in that great state of Ohio, home to many ex-Yugoslavs, Serbs, and Croatians.
Granted, Marshall Tito ran a tight ship and late at night killings and kidnappings were an expected byproduct of his detail oriented management style. But the sandwiches…!!! Well, they were fabulous. It was a known fact that the only way to get a Yugo to stop boring you with his take on the political-socio-sexual-large animal veterinary commentary of life in the Land of the Southern Slavs, was to offer him a sandwich, filled to the max with Gavrilovic salami, Sunka (ham), Sirove (various cheeses), and Janjetine (smoked lamb). The bread was thick & crusty. And lettuce??!?! That was for the cows and the pigs that were soon to be slaughtered for another sandwich.
So. Mr Olsen, Ryan, please correct your thinking and sling insults in the correct direction; I believe your Mr. Bush likes to eat alfalfa sprouts and artichkokes. Maybe he’s the one setting your sandwich menu.
