If you are going to post news, please follow these guidelines. Eventually, this news will have a spot on the front page, so it needs to stay somewhat ( :lol: ) professional.
Made the Subject line in typical title format, like this:
Man Drinks Himself Retarded
Then in the body, first say what the gist of the article is and where you found it:
According to The Onion, a man literally drank himself completely retarded this past week.
Put a quote outlining the cool part of the article:
A man was found today in a house right outside of Chicago, where he had allegedly drank himself retarded. When neighbors found him, he was curled in a fetal position sucking his thumb and speaking jibberish. A trip to a mental hospital found his blood alcohol content to be 0.9, enough to kill a man, and his IQ after sobering up is around 30. There is speak from family members about a potential lawsuit against Absolut, as the man was drunk from their brand of vodka.
Then give a little opinion on what you think of the article/subject:
What a complete moron. That's a waste of alcohol if you ask me. I know quite a few high schoolers that could've gotten drunk for the amount of alcohol this man consumed.
Then post a link to the original article:
The full article can be found HERE (http://www.disney.com)
Hope that isn't too much for you guys. I like all the news that's been coming in, but when we do a site redesign, all of this will be right smack on the front page. So please, still have fun with it, just make sure we site the sources and whatnot. 8) (And I of course made the whole story up that is above, though it might be possible for it to happen :-))
