Editorial: Wesleyan, free speech and the state of modern American liberalism
Sep. 23, 2015This past Tuesday, Wesleyan University’s student newspaper, "The Wesleyan Argus," published an opinion piece titled "Why Black Lives Matter Isn’t What You Think." In it, the author postulates that while the BLM movement has noble intentions, it has had the unfortunate side effect of creating a hostile and violent environment for law enforcement. The piece draws a direct correlation between the recent murders of police officers and the proliferation of BLM’s ideals.

Comedic journalism is informative and here to stay
Sep. 23, 2015"The Daily Show" will soon be returning with a new host: South African comedian Trevor Noah. While Trevor Noah will have large comedic shoes to fill, there is no doubt with time he will find his own unique style and will evolve alongside the show. Every satirical news show that has begun after "The Daily Show" takes, at the least, a few dozen episodes to find its niche. It even took Jon Stewart a while to build a loyal and devoted audience; in the end, "The Daily Show" and its counterparts have created a way for millennials to keep up with the news while having a (somewhat) good time doing it.

He brought a clock he made — comprised of wires, a display and a pencil case — to his high school in Irving, Texas, to show one of his teachers.

Movie Review: Johnny Depp plays riveting role in ‘Black Mass’
By Kelsey Bona | Sep. 23, 2015Johnny Depp finally shed the pirate get-up and crawled out of Tim Burton’s tight grasp to portray real-life mob boss James "Whitey" Bulger in last weekend’s "Black Mass." While the film was able to resurrect Depp’s acting credentials, it was incapable of reviving itself after a jumbled beginning.
