The DI tells Global Campus to DIE?

Nothing could have prepared us for last week's editorial in the DI. Amidst the usual nonsensical, hate-filled screed of Paul Cruise, the DI launched a blistering critique of the Global Campus 2.0 (at least the zero seems appropriate). After taking a moment to purvey some of the statements of this article, it becomes twice as incredulous that the DI wrote this. For example:

"...the program has fallen flat on its face."

"Even President White said, 'What we ought to do is reset the approach we were taking and learn from the last couple of years what has worked. And let’s go with what has worked and eliminate what hasn’t.'
'Go with what has worked and eliminate what hasn’t'? What hasn’t worked has been the entire program. It’s time to face the truth"

"And what we pick and what we choose should be for the best of our University as a whole, and that
would not be Global Campus."

The DI, as we have posted previously, had been ardent shills of the skunk White and his machinations for quite a while. Indeed, the DI had advertising links to the office of GC until their new format. Also, White's less-than-honest manner in the killing of Chief Illiniwek gained him unconditional TASSer loyalty from the DI.

For other reasons as well, this long-overdue development is not nearly enough to reverse the DI sycophants' standings as TASSers. The revelation about DeBrock came several weeks too late after the News Gazette's, and naturally makes no mention of his shady past. It does mention Ghosh in the past tense, but nothing surrounding his quest to take care of the "too many jar heads" nor his suspicious departure.
