Students March on Crimson to Protest Article

"In terms of coalition building, I think this is an important step," said Eddie A. Bruce '02.

But Bruce and some other speakers also seemed intent on venting frustration with the article itself, and with Crimson staff.

"This was not just irresponsible journalism but not journalism at all," Bruce said. "It was totally not constructive."

Others were more explicit in their criticism.

"I am pissed," said Jeff Sheng '02. "I cannot believe that even one person in this building [The Crimson] could go to The New York Times and say, 'Look at this piece of journalism that was in my school newspaper.'"

Some speakers, meanwhile, focused on the larger context of Fong's article.

Margaret C. Anadu '03 said she felt The Crimson's decision to run Fong's piece was only part of the problem being highlighted by yesterday's protest.
