Oregroanian (The Oregonian newspaper nickname)

The Oregonian is a daily newspaper published in Portland, Oregon, since 1850. The newspaper has been nicknamed The Oregroanian (Oregonian + groan) by some critics since at least 2000.
 
Another nickname for The Oregonian is The Boregonian.

I consumed a couple of rounds of my usual coffee with Baileys and finished reading Willamette Week and most of the Oregroanian during the trip.

I’m so disgusted I can’t even write a coherent letter to the editor right now.

And your age… The Oregroanian is obviously an agist concern - it wouldn’t accept 1900 as a year of birth, so I put in 1999. Definitely a paper for the young at heart 😉

About what you’d expect from a university “newspaper”. Or the Oregroanian, for that matter.

If this article is coming from the Oregroanian or the Associated DePressed…
I don’t think I can believe any of it.
The Oregroanian and the AP are regularly carrying the water for Obama and the democrats (including governor K).
