Webcomics: The New Funny Pages

On the internet, you can find self-published comics of any style—whether it be the strips of Sunday newspapers or the full pages of comic books. The internet offers a variety of genres, styles and tastes of comics. For every comic…

Do Mustang Daily editors dream of newsprint sheep?

I remember my first Mustang Daily dream: I was sitting at my desk, specifically reserved for the news editor, focusing on the computer intently. On the screen were that day’s pages, which I was laying out. And that was it.…

A new era of athletics?

In my blog last week I was a bit foolish. I threw down the gauntlet. I made a statement that said the Mustang Daily would provide the best coverage of the soccer match against UC Santa Barbara on Friday night.…

Newsworthy newsroom, week 5
