Well, it seems the Alligator is once again on an all Kool-Aid diet. Nothing else would explain the 600-word fellating this paper gave Tim Tebow on Tuesday. See, I like to think most people in the communications field are bright enough to notice a PR move when they see one.
She's never even heard of YouTube, but the video of Susan Boyle's performance on the talent show "Britain's Got Talent" has set the record for the number of views in a week - and it shows no sign of stopping any time soon.
Hell, you think you're ready for this semester to be over? Just sneak a peek inside the Alligator newsroom, with moving boxes abound - except, of course, for our trusty junk-food drawers (Kit-Kats on the reg) which will remain fully stocked until the Appliance Direct lady sings.
