Reading the Newspaper is Cool!

By: Autumn Martinez

When I first begin to read the newspaper, I first look for the Sports section which is usually in the third section of the newspaper. I mainly just skim through it until I find news that affects my favorite teams such as the New England Patriots, Boston Red Sox and/or USC. I also take a glance at the headline news on the front page to see what's going on in the community. For example, there was an article about the Texas Longhorns taking third spot in the BCS and that is important because there is controversy over it. Many Austinites are Longhorn fans, therefore they will respond to this article that took up about 2/3 of the front page. I'm not the type of reader that takes time to read the beginning all the way to the end. I mainly just skip through anything that doesn't look appealing or doesn't look interesting to me. A few things that I am not immediatley attracted to would probably have to be the Life & Arts section, and the Business section.
