By Charles Apple  |  5:19 p.m. April 15  |  4 comments

So here was the deal: A professor at tiny LaSalle University in Philadelphia got into trouble for using exotic dancers in a business seminar last month. The college paper prepared an article about the incident but was ordered to hold the story pending the school’s official investigation.

Finally, the Dean of Students gave permission to run the story. But there was a catch, reports Melissa Dribben of the Philadelphia Inquirer:

The dean said the story should run “below the fold” – on the lower half of the front page, which cannot be seen from a vending box or in a stack of newspapers.
