...fair, the nominal impulse for the The Voice’s existence—the assessment that Harvard needs alternative publishing outlets—is legitimate. The stuffy old Crimson-Advocate-Lampoon triad would benefit from a degree of clever and vigorous competition beyond what The Independent, Tuesday Magazine, and Satire V have been able to provide.
