The most recent news stories on the WKU online newsrooms deal with students, which isn't a big surprise for a newspaper that mostly wants to attract student readers. These stories would be considered soft news since they don't represent an ultimate importance standing. Although they are interesting to read and peak student interests, they don't make a huge impact on information in our daily lives.
Some of their news stories do end up in Bowling Green newspaper. I think they make it to the newspaper because they're stories that are better told by people who are students and have a hand in the student body here. It builds a healthy relationship between our school and the community we reside in. People who don't attend the school can still be interested in whats going on here and the education WKU provides.
It's not cutting edge news, but it is still reliable and good information for people to have access to.
