Transcript of The Medium Apologizes
An Apology From The Medium: “On behalf of the entire staff of The Medium, we would like to apologize for an article that was pub-
lished in this week’s paper regarding Alpha Chi Omega sorority. Since our paper is satirical in nature and
no stranger to controversy, it is rare that we apologize for our content. However, it is the feeling of this
editorial board that the article in question merits an apology. It was written in a cruel, debasing manner
that does not reflect the values or goals of our organization. Our aim is to create humorous content which
will entertain the University community; the article that ran this week was cruel and relied on cheap jokes
in lieu of humor. By publishing the article, we made a poor judgment to experiment with a style of humor
that had entertained our audience years ago. The reaction we received was humbling, and represented a
community of readers that stood in solidarity for the sisters of Alpha Chi Omega. We are humbled by the
response, and apologize to those offended and for any damage the piece might have caused.”
