It is your power, it states that this is your open form of student expression. For example, if you felt you had too many tests and wanted to organize students to boycott school, you might get ISS. But if your on our newspaper staff and you were to write an opinions piece and you called a meeting after school hours, you could do that.
You would have to discuss it, but there is a chance it will be published. It doesn't go to anyone except Mr. Reeves and he doesn't even censor you. If you can convince him then you can run whatever you want to run. They avoid bias and/or favoritism.
In case someone wants to write a letter to the editor you can, because they have the address and email.

Front Pages of The World
1.) My favorite Newspaper front page out of all of the newspaper front pages i looked at was Stars and Stripes - MidEast Edition. The reason i chose this one was because it didn't have too many words, which makes you want to look inside and buy it, also because the headlines are big and captivating, and it has a bold and major photo that was well taken in the front of it, drawing more attention to the newspaper.
2.) My favorite headline on here is "Broken Trust" because it has that human interest news value in it and it makes me want to read it.
3.) The newspaper front page has 2 stories.
4.) All of the newspapers generally have big headline, and a big photo, which is what i think is what people want to see or know about. Then after that they mostly all have little stories, that don't give away too much, letting you know just enough to let you make the decision of if you want to buy it.
5.) Some things that change are the size of the stories, and how many. Most of them had a good amount of them, but some of them had way too many. They were very overwhelming and distracting.
