The Pritzker Press Review

     The Pritzker Press was my least favorite newspapers of the newspapers we received so far. However I think that The Beacon is still weaker than The Pritzker Press in a couple ways. Reading through the articles in this paper I didn't find any spelling mistakes which I thought was very impressive. However, I did happen to notice the article "Letter from the Editors" which stated that The Pritzker Press had over 130 journalism students in it with two levels of editing. After reading that line I actually expected a lot more out of The Pritzker Press since they are only producing an eight page paper. Still, I think that as a group we need to refine our editing process to be more efficient and successful in producing well-written essays. One thing I didn't like about The Pritzker Press was the police brutality article on page six. Although the article was a fairly interesting and well-written piece, I thought it was much too long. The majority of our audience wouldn't be focused or interested enough in the story to keep with an article that long. I though that to take up half of a page for that story with no picture was a waste of space. One article I did like was the article, "What is the IB Program?," because the article surveyed over 166 students at Pritzker about whether or not they would take IB classes. The article drew a lot of responses from Pritzker's student body and produced interesting results that people would actually want to read.
