A quotation from Eleanor Roosevelt

One thing is sure — none of the arts flourishes on censorship and repression. And by this time it should be evident that the American public is capable of doing its own censoring.

Eleanor Roosevelt (1884-1962) First Lady of the US (1933-45), politician, diplomat, activist
Column (1947-10-29), “My Day”

Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919) American politician, statesman, conservationist, writer, US President (1901-1909)

@blogoklahoma I wonder what the “rigorous news coverage of university affairs,” were that prompted this? The Gazan genocide perhaps? It's never explicitly stated to be the case, but seeing as the OU Daily may likely see a similar outcome for covering that same topic, I don't think it's mere coincidence.
