Welcome the Newbie!!

We've got Jeff's potential uniform here...

So - we're adding to our ranks here at the Vox Blog! Give a warm and welcome 'Howdy' to our new blogger, Jeffrey! (He's stinkin' excited to be here! Love the enthusiasm!)

So this kid LOVES to talk politics - he reads about em', watches tv about em', breathes them, even puts milk on his daily bowl of Politic-O's: It's a passion. So get geared up and ready for some good debates, updates, and general governmental awesome-ness.

Let's introduce the kid with a fun 'Wild-Card' style post. Politic free for all!

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.
