Explination

So here is the background story before i show you my piece.

I'm in a jounalism class at my high school and the news paper we publish is called the Hungry Tiger Times. I was askd to write a political piece about the cons to Obama being predident. When i was assigned this assignment I truely did not wish to do it for many reasons, but namely because I knew I was going to be writing my PREP Paper. But my teacher really thought I would be the perfect person to write it and do a good job so iI finally gave in and said I would write the peice. So I proceeded to write the peice for about a week and half, staying up till all hours of the night researching and backing up my opinions with facts and examples and documentation. I turned in by the dead line a 3 page, fully writen peice with cites and sources at the bottom of where to go to see what I read and based my paper off of, to my teacher. She comes to me a week and half later and says that she couldn't edit any of the content of my paper out and that it might be to long to go in the paper. So I suggest that she simply take an excerpt from my paper and put it in and at the bottom put "to see full article please visit our website @.....". Instead of doing this she decides to wait till shes already sent the paper out to tell me that she isn't going to publish it in the paper because Chris, the boy that was supposed to write the pro's to Obama being president, didn't get a chance to rebuttle my peice. Now mind you I dod not write my peice according to anyones thoughts but my own, so why should he get a chance to write a rebuttle to mine when that is not what it was meant for in the first place. But never the less I try to go with it, and then she tells me that she would like my peice to be an argumentative peice and that first she must clear it with our principal Stubbs, now that doesn't quite make sense to me but what the hey I'll go with it again. So I let it go and take a seat and say to myself well just see what happens and hopefully the outcome is satisfactory.
Well, then our newspaper comes out, and what ended up getting put in the paper i ask you? Chris's peice got put in the paper and a deeply offensive and i think very wrong oppinion about Prop 8. Now I myself dont really care about the gay issue, you want to be gay thats fine with me just keep it out of my face. but this piece about prop 8 really pissed me off to be honest. I dont think that half the information in it was correct, and if it is the author sure as hell didnt cite it. I think that it was very distastefull and am embarrassed that it made it into the paper. But I digress. So Chris, the boy that didnt write an Obama piece that could compete with mine, got his piece published!!! Im so deeply offended at the SO FAR LEFT AGENDA that has been pushed in this paper and that not one conservative article was published. I worked incredibly hard, and spent a large amount of hours, that could have been spent working on my PREP Paper or applying to college and scholarships, that I wasted on that stupid article!! Why did I write it if I was just going to be censored and snuffed in the first place.
