Colorful Weather:
When USA Today hit the streets in 1982, its most identifiable feature was its full-page color weather map, which was quickly imitated. Today, full-color weather maps are commonplace.
Student Rights?
Two feature stories -- one on divorce, another on teen pregnancy -- were planned for the Hazelwood (Mo.) East High School newspaper's final edition for the 1983 school year. The principal thought the stories were inappropriate as written. The stories were killed. The students sued, saying their First Amendment rights had been violated. In 1988, the US Supreme Court held that administrators can censor school newspapers if the content is not consistent with the school's educational mission. |
