The Median Post Chronicles Part 1: The Introduction


 Welcome to The Median Post! The only newspaper that isn’t really a newspaper at all.

     Here at The Median Post we believe in the importance of standing for things in general, which is why we currently stand for standing for nothing (at least for the moment).


     As a skeleton crew of seasoned centrists and general proponents of not stirring the pot too much we understand the dangers posed by over-sensationalism in the media, which is why here at the Medium Post our writers are near exclusively assigned content that neither they or the general public is remotely interested in so as to minimize the chance of excessive sentiment biasing anyone’s coverage.


     And on that decidedly note-like note, let’s clunkily segue into our first story: an introductory post from an obscure man nobody cares about!


      Greetings! My name is Hunter Gonnerman. I’m a former psychology major who has transitioned into working towards an occupational therapy assistant program with not one, not three, but two associate degrees and a penchant for using such quirky words as ‘the,’ ‘but,’ and ‘there’ in plain old day to day conversation. When I’m not submitting to the whims of my academic betters you can find me participating in such acts as eating, sleeping, delivering orders to people I don’t know, delivering orders to people I do know, and writing up generally sarcastic but usually harmlessly intended fictions for my own amusement. As of recently I’ve enrolled in a personally superfluous, but nonetheless intriguing, Intro to Marketing course as a means of hopefully gleaning a few important things about this hitherto mysterious field to me. More so than anything I hope to come away with a trick or two that I can more generally apply later down the road.

Overview of your business/organization (including some general details, such as where it’s located, who it serves, what it sells, size and scope of the operation …)  A Profitable Day is a business offering marketing consulting services located in Lake Oswego. The company has a website, a google listing, and a handful of social media accounts, including a YouTube one whose videos are featured on their aforementioned website. In the  About Us  section of their site  A Profitable Day  claims to be seeking to help expand businesses customer bases and increase other business’s visibility through helping content reach the first page of Google and YouTube searches. This is made somewhat ironic by the fact that  A Profitable Day  itself appears to have picked a business name which causes accounts of what services it provides to get buried under a myriad of investing and financial advice a

      Welcome to The Median Post! The only newspaper that isn’t really a newspaper at all.  Here at The Median Post we believe that democracy dies in dankness, the manifestation of all that isn’t ideal.      It is my disinterest to inform you that due to an unsatisfactory professional review of the content produced by intern number 004, who went unaccredited but was still primarily responsible for last week’s article, this aforementioned intern has been placed on permanent leave and evacuated from The Median Post headquarters forevermore. Said intern was responsible for writing a piece with more than 40 unprofessional instances of enthusiasm, more than 15 instances of what expressing partisan sentiment, and over 10 instances of using superfluous metaphors or colorful language to describe matters which could have just as easily have been conveyed in prompt and restrained prose as per our publication’s usual standard. We here at The Median Post apologize for any anger, confusion, bittern
