Jesse Oxfeld, a senior at Stanford, lost his job at the student newspaper after writing about the first daughter in a column his boss considered a violation of the strict policy of not covering the president's daughter.

Hundreds of reporters descended on campus but were kept at a distance from the Clintons. ``First, why, precisely, is it that we're all expected to bend over backward to give Chelsea and her family a `normal' Stanford experience while the first family itself is under no similar obligation?'' Oxfeld wrote. He also criticized the Daily's rule of not writing about Chelsea unless she does something newsworthy.

Stanford Daily Editor in Chief Carolyn Sleeth decided Oxfeld's column didn't fit in with the paper's guidelines for covering Chelsea. She killed the column Thursday, after the writer refused to revise it. Ivana wins her freedom - again Ivana Trump is single again.
