Campus Daily Guide: the saga continues
July 28, 2008 in industry news
UPDATE: More coverage from Doug Fisher and Jackie Alexander (a former USC Gamecock editor), who has some not-too-kind words. #
Late this afternoon, I was alerted by Will Sommer, whose been blogging at Georgetown’s Voice this summer, that the Campus Daily Guide site was now password protected. Sure enough, I went to www.campusdailyguide.com and discovered this screen: #
If you hit cancel, it’s a “401 error”: #
This server could not verify that you are authorized to access the document requested. Either you supplied the wrong credentials (e.g., bad password), or your browser doesn’t understand how to supply the credentials required. #Earlier today, the domain was pointing to the The Ohio State University Campus Daily Guide (osu.campusdailyguide.com). #Additionally, a 401 Authorization Required error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. #
Curious. I’m still awaiting word from Rusty Lewis at CMN responding to my e-mailed questions. #
The OSU guide still comes up. It asks for a logon three times, but that seems to be linked to the News, Rate my Professor and Now Playing on MTVu boxes at the bottom of the main page.
