The Daily Vidette

I have repeatedly seen my school's student paper screw up story after story, use quotes by speakers completely out of context, and emphasize quotes from lectures that were completely irrelevant to the main idea. UW-Whitewater, where I did my undergraduate work, is literally 1/4 the size of ISU yet the student paper was about twice as good. I don't understand this. But the title and clunky opening line of the Daily Vidette's writeup on Pappe's lecture is just stupid. "Palestinian Shift Calls Upon U.S. for for Action"? What? What shift? How does a shift call upon anyone to do anything? Am I taking crazy pills?
