One Step Behind

Yesterday, we gave editors at The Sun a tough time for sleeping through the summer and failing in their responsibility to inform the Cornell community about important breaking news.

Lo and behold, this morning, Michael Morisy, the paper's managing editor, published a story about prominent alumnus Philip Merrill '55, now presumed dead.

It's unclear why it took The Sun so long to put out a story and why it suddenly appeared today -- but we've got a sneaking suspicion that some of its editors may be readers of MetaEzra.

And while we're flattered that we've been able to rouse them out of their summer slumber, our fingers are crossed that this is the last time that we need to kindly remind them to keep doing the thing that newspapers have an obligation to.

You know, like report the news.
