Anonymous (if that is your real name), I must assume you are no longer connected to campus and thus are unaware that it is currently Spring Break time. Please make a note of this to prevent further - how do I say - less than knowledgeable comments.

Also (for the umpteenth and a half time), send them a @$%$#$ email!

Bacon...oh Baaacccoooonnn...guess you cats are pretty busy. That's cool. Just wish you would tell us that you're not going to post regularly. This relationship needs some communication.

If you don't have time to post, why not a casting call to get some people in here to post regular funnies like the old days?

I haven't heard anything about intimidation, but I can tell you right now that the only reason comments are moderated is to keep the posts clear of spam. It's the default setting on Wordpress (the platform PBA Local runs on), and makes more sense than letting people post ads for Viagra in the comments section.

If you'd like to talk to any of the contributors of PBA Local, go to the site and you can see who is involved.

(I would punch myself repeatedly before I let an administrator get involved with this site.)

PBA Local is totally independent, although the school is really trying to gain control and intimidate the editors

The PBA Local is actually pretty funny. It's better than the Bacon ever was and has TONS more info. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

So far, PBA Local seems to be a mix between the Beacon and the Bacon.Not spoof and satire (Bacon), but not admin. approved news (The Beacon).
A nice blend of the two.

Shameless Plug,

Who controls PBALocal?
The fact that comments on stories are restricted makes me suspicious that it, like the Beacon, are controlled by the school as yet another form of propaganda.

So I want to know is this just a Shameless Plug for Shameless Propaganda?

PBA Local was set up by print journalism majors to practice a breaking news format, which is something that is unavailable with the Beacon. It's not open to just print journalism majors; everyone is welcome to contribute.

Good job to whoever went through all the trouble to set up PBA Local, I'm sure it will be a good source of actual news once I no longer live on campus.

It's a PBA news site that actually gets updated regularly. Pretty good, actually.
