On the main page:
"Robert Johnson was Brilliant until Late in the Game"
"Battling hard against Purdue shows Hoosiers how far they still have to go"

You have to go to the Sports page to get this one:
"Purdue beats Indiana to extend record streak"

Most surprising omission:
"Purdue football coach selfishly uses 4 court-side seats that he could have donated to disabled veterans or homeless orphans"

The most effective thing we can do is not give them the clicks. The IU star not only ignores Purdue, they've also gotten way worse on other coverage, notably the Colts (more quality than quantity).
 
I disagree, the best thing we can do is read the PU articles and not the IU articles. People read the Star, that is a fact of life. If PU fans avoid the Star it is only going to get worse. It's not like boycotting is going to end the star all together.

Doyle is doing a good job writing about PU so I'm hoping that keeps up. Obviously winning helps a lot.
 
Not sure if you get a different version... but my version had the Purdue headline on the main cover at the top above indy star and had nearly a full page pic of our starting five with headline Walking Tall on the front page of the sports section.

If you are talking about the online version the Purdue article was on top yesterday evening but I am speculating may have dropped since the “clicks” typically drive the order d the online content.
