What's Going On a the Tiger Hi-Line?

Up until February, the school newspaper for Cedar Falls High School, the Tiger Hi-Line, was published by the Waterloo Courier and distributed throughout Cedar Falls. The funny thing about this was that the Tiger Hi-Line is a better newspaper than the Waterloo Courier.

Anyway, the Courier no longer publishes them and so I have to rely on the website, which isn't always updated regularly.

This week's Hi-Line had three things in their entertainment section. One is a review of the Jonas Brother's 3D extravaganza (did I mention that it's a High School newspaper?), another is an article on coffee shops that's inappropriately titled (it looks at all of them, not just the Lamppost. And who the hell goes to the Lamppost other than uppity teenagers? And, Mr. Wente, it's Panera Bread, not Panera's Bread. And what ever happened to that tall guy with the weird name? Do I just not go into Panera at the righ time?) and the third one is Monica Reida being her usual awesome self. ("...You might find that you'll love New York, not just heart it.")

If you look at the PDF version, Monica Reida's article appears before Wente's and the review of something no one really cares about. (Don't most teenagers not care about the Jonas Brothers?) If you look at the online version, Reida's article is listed last.

Who puts this together? Show some love for Monica Reida. Her awesomely snooty and sophisticated articles (she wrote a column about school web blocks that started off with "Like a good journalist, I always research my articles before writing them." and a column on Proposition 8 that was so well written I cried.) are the reason why I still read the Hi-Line. Well, that and Vincent Stigliani.
