The Collegian issues encyclical against UTulsa Gazette
Editorial opinion reaffirms journalistic excommunication, offers new guidance to readers. In a highly anticipated announcement last Friday, Nov. 6, The Collegian’s editor-in-chief, Aiden Hoogstra, issued an encyclical decrying the UTulsa Gazette. He called for readers of The Collegian to ignore news from the publication, condemn it on social media and shun its staff and writers. The advisory judgement comes from the Vicar of Kronkite’s close interpretation of The AP-Stylic See’s precedent in similar matters, including past messages in The Collegian’s staff group chat, email correspondences from prior editors-in-chief and his own personal musings. The ruling comes after the UTulsa Gazette recently made a small resurgence on Instagram and Yik Yak after decades of dormancy.
