The Vox Box

Seriously?

By now you've probably all heard about allegations being made against pop star Chris Brown for supposedly beating his girlfriend, singer Rihanna. Although initially efforts were taking to keep her name a secret, reports of leaked that she has canceled her Friday concert in Malaysia and her 21st birthday.

She'll bounce back from it, but do you think Chris Brown will have his massive teenage girl fanbase anymore?

Violence is not acceptable in teenage relationships! This shows that it can happen to anyone.

In 2006, then-editor Steve Smith of The Spokesman-Review had the idea of starting a publication for an often forgotten audience: teenagers. The Vox Box was a continuation of the Vox, an all-student staffed newspaper published by The Spokesman-Review. High school student journalists who staffed the Vox made all content decisions as they learn about the trade of journalism. This blog's mission was to give students an opportunity to publish their voices. The Vox Box and the Vox wrapped up in June 2009, but you can follow former staffers' new blog at http://voxxiez.blogspot.com.
