I've seen some negative stories in college newspapers in my time, and I would like to know at what point in history it was decided it was a good idea to just steal the papers.

My ex wrote an opinion article in the paper that to put it mildly, had the campus on fire. I never heard of one single paper being stolen...instead letters to the editor were being written in record amounts, the paper was being read in record amounts, and the faculty advisor was ecstatic - not because the article had offended people, because young adults were excited about the news and journalism.

If someone writes someone in a newspaper that pisses you off, WRITE A LETTER AND LET THEM KNOW. An intelligent, thoughtful, grammatically stellar letter. Anything less makes you look like far more of an idiot than the story could have done to begin with.
