| I'd like to know of one junior high kid that actually reads a physical newspaper. The only people that read an actual "newspaper" are people over 50. It's a digital world and everything and more is online. The chronicle is online, yet even their PDF style format is clunky and hard to navigate. As far as slang goes it's a part of our culture now, such as LMAO, LOL, OMG, and my favorite WTF. It's a Generation X and Y society now, not the baby boomer era style environment that you might be used to. | |

Just like the spoken word, the written word can be corrupted. Alot of Txt Mess abrevs are not bathroom language. Some are. Seeing them in print, full-length is disgusting no matter your age. I'm sorry Jr High kids get their news only from their friends. It will increase their ignorance about the larger world. Then, when they are grown, who will "run the country?" Americans are already having a hard time catching up their education system to compete in a "global economy." |
