I am on my school's paper, the Black and Gold, at my high school, Cleveland Heights High. Lately, our paper's been having trouble: it rarely exceeds four pages, the stories rarely exceed 200 words, and they are not well-written. Our rival school, Shaker Heights High, produces a 30 page paper, The Shakerite, with long well-written stories, sections, and color photos.
So since I thought the Black and Gold was bad, I brought up how it isn't good anymore at our last meeting. The editors got mad at me and gave me a negative credit - for constructive criticsm. (sp?) They'll demerit ANYONE who doesn't agree that The Black and Gold is world's premier paper! Then I got mad, and got really critical of The Black and Gold. Now everyone there's being mean to me, making fun of my undying support of John Kerry, and I don't know what to do!
