The Vox Box

Stuffed… girls?

Does anyone else think that making President Obama's little girls into Beanie Babies is a little messed up? Maybe the girls are supposed to be the new "role models'' but it just seems weird that they're already being marketed!

What do you guys think?



In 2006, then-editor Steve Smith of The Spokesman-Review had the idea of starting a publication for an often forgotten audience: teenagers. The Vox Box was a continuation of the Vox, an all-student staffed newspaper published by The Spokesman-Review. High school student journalists who staffed the Vox made all content decisions as they learn about the trade of journalism. This blog's mission was to give students an opportunity to publish their voices. The Vox Box and the Vox wrapped up in June 2009, but you can follow former staffers' new blog at http://voxxiez.blogspot.com.
