One one side you have Fox once again attacking a liberal institution because thats what fair and balanced news groups do. On the other hand you have some lovely press for our friends down on the hill to make them them look fantastic.

The UNC system really looks bad in this one. It wouldn't bother me if they said any veteran got in-state tuition regardless of where they live.

Speaking of fair and balanced, it will be interesting to see how tonight's Presidental Debate will go. CNN is moderating and selecting all the questions, wonder how unbiased and balanced that will turn out?

So apparently this thread was made to make fun of UNC-CH and yet it is about UNC-P?
Guess the title of the article should be more clear that the UNC system denied it or UNC-P did.

I read this earlier today, and you do have to go pretty far to realize that this in not a system-wide policy and that the blame lies solely with UNCP. Can't lay this one on the holes, unfortunately.

Yup, I skimmed this during some down time at work. Totally thought this was UNC not just UNCP. Still bad press for the System as a whole.

I would guess it will be better than if MSNBC or Fox were to do it. The difference is that CNN doesn't spend millions of dollars on a campaign to try to convince people that they are fair and balanced when anyone with half a brain can figure out that they are super conservative just like MSNBC is their counterpart.
I am more interested in this one than the last one. I still just barely favor one of the candidates(I won't say who cuz thats a whole different forum) over the other but as far as how our country fairs I'm not sure there will be much difference in the long run regardless of which chump we go with.
