UPDATE: Following the firing of the director of the student newspaper, Indiana University has now cut the print edition of the newspaper entirely.

Indiana University cuts IDS print entirely, hours after firing student media director
By IDS staff
Oct 15, 2025 1:23 pm · Updated Oct 15, 2025 1:23 pm

IU previously directed the Indiana Daily Student to stop printing news coverage in our newspaper. Upon pushback, the university fully cut print, including our special editions. The IDS was not involved in the decision.

Media School Dean David Tolchinsky sent the order to IDS leadership in an email responding to its appeal that the school not censor the newspaper. And the dean attributed the decision to “the campus.” He has not yet responded to a message for clarification.

Trump did not broker an end to the conflict. There's no peace agreement and the main causes of the conflict dating to 1948 - Israeli claims on Palestinian land and ethnic cleansing of occupied territory - remain in full force.

It's a border dispute. And Israel doesn't recognize Palestine's borders.

Greta Thunberg: “Israeli soldiers hit, kicked, starved, and tortured me”

• They placed a flag next to me, and anytime the flag touched me, they kicked me
• Whenever I raised my head to look at Ben-Gvir, I was kicked
• She was filmed while stripped naked

This is no more lawful than if Iran / North Korea / whoever blew up a couple American yachts in the Mediterranean for suspected drug trafficking. On the legal spectrum it sits in the middle of a Venn diagram between overt acts of military aggression, state-sponsored terrorism, and simple murder.

I kind of appreciate that they did, though

They could've used another picture, and no doubt they were aware they were selecting a picture with their own logo in it

Thousands of posts from a private Young Republican Telegram chat reveal a culture of casual racism/antisemitism, rape jokes and celebration of Hitler/Nazism.

Some of the ringleaders are below: We live in a world where 4chan types now occupy positions of real power.

This is what they were like 20 years ago, when *I* was in college. It's the same shit being passed down. Social conservatism in the US is built on bigotry, and its lineage in this regard is built upon codified racism and religious nationalism. Republican politics today are a hate movement.

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

Decompressing from WNBA! Playoff games are more meaningful than preseason games, but now I have the attention span to worry for the rest of the preseason that Kuminga didn't look great after missing the offseason with the team

I still think we're (the Dubs) going to be a contender this year

Don't understand why people defend this, any more than they defended Amy Klobuchar's abusive treatment of her staff
