question about personal statements
I don't think this will have a positive or a negative effect on your PS. Out of curiosity, why is this a big factor for a particular school? Don't most (all?) universities have newspapers? If you're talking about Ultra Vires or Obiter Dicta, I can see that being slightly more relevant, but still not particularly compelling. If you're interested in writing and publishing, consider whether you'd want to be involved with the school's legal journal and perhaps write about that. -

The account has been banned. I'll handle this further with the poster. -

I've saved it to my notes to direct at you or @CleanHands later, whichever of you I feel earns it first- 1

Osgoode or Western
Not going to lie, when I saw that post previewed under "Recent Posts", my first thought was "huh, wonder what BQ said today". Instead, it is a truly unhinged and nonsensical rant against a poster who has been barely active over the past year. I am so very curious about what triggered that. -

Osgoode or Western
It's difficult to overstate how surprised I was when I realized this post was not directed at me or @CleanHands- 3

question about personal statements
I don't think looking like you're interested in journalism is an issue. The issue, in so far as there is one, is that this isn't a particularly compelling reason and it takes up valuable space. At the same time, it is your personal statement! If the newspaper is that important to you, write about it. Fundamentally the PS is often overhyped, it plays a smaller role in admissions (generally) than most candidates think.- 1
