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.

Unless there is some sort of lawsuit to reverse this policy, look for the Trump administration to put in identical rules for the White House press four in the next 30 days

(AP) — Dozens of reporters turned in access badges and exited the Pentagon on Wednesday rather than agree to government-imposed restrictions on their work, pushing journalists who cover the American military further from the seat of its power.

If this were a democrat who had a restraining order placed on him, I’m quite confident that Mike Johnson would call for him to be immediately suspended from the house or at least censored. I expect there will be crickets from Mike Johnson on this news.

That siren is just as likely an ambulance transporting a heart attack patient to the hospital

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 1d

Trump: "You hear those sirens going off? That's good. A good sound. That means they either got the bad guy or they're gonna stop the bad guy. You didn't hear that sound bc nobody wanted to do anything. Listen to the beauty of that sound. That's the real deal sirens, not politically correct sirens"

Trump thinks that because protest signs are well designed and look nice that therefore they must be funded by George Soros?

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 1d

Trump on protesters: "You see these violent incidents and then you see people holding this gorgeous sign, with beautiful wood and beautiful cardboard wood everything. Everything's perfect. Perfect paint job. And they're all the same. You know that they weren't made in the basement out of love."
