while the layout admittedly needs work, it's a hell of a lot better first issue than, oh, the cal review's latest after being around for years. give them credit for trying to produce an actual newspaper in that format, instead of the crappy stapled booklets the Cal has become. While the Cal Review has actually consistently gone down in quality, I foresee the New Frontier only improving.

granted, neither paper, nor the Guardian, match the quality of the Repeater or the consistency of UCLA's Daily Bruin.

as for those wristbands, eh, give the Dem's some credit for marketing, making a nice profit-margin while the "circle-jerk of freedom" is too busy with their little coups and failed attempts at getting on A.S. (New Wave in '02, Sun God this year— give me a break).

That's the sound of Gutenberg rolling over in his grave.

And I stand firm on the bracelets.

I agree with ndg. It was riddled with spelling errors, nevermind grammar and other logical errors. I mean, common, the spell checker isn't exactly new technology. Although the Cal Review is incredibly stupid (they claimed the war on Iraq is good because it helps protect the Saudi royal family!), the New Frontier, as a propaganda machine of the Dems, probably won't deliver anything new or insightful beyond the daily mudslinging.

it's a first issue… if the second has the same problems, no defense from me.

(and, note, the daily bruin is consistant, but i'm not saying anything about its quality)
