If you feel it's still confusing, let me know, and I'll clarify further. I am curious, though, about the Insurgent's publishing both Marxist <em>and</em> anarchist screeds; I would've thought that the two philosophies were almost diametrically opposed.

Just a point of clarification for you and your readers: it's apparent that you realize the Oregon Commentator is a different paper than the Insurgent, but it's misleading that you merge the two names with the term "Oregon Insurgent". While both are student-run publications on the University of Oregon campus, one is known for Marxist/anarchist screeds and the other is known for qualified arguments in favor of free speech, free markets and other affirmations of the American lifestyle. The paper that printed the Jesus cartoons is known simply as The Insurgent, or sometimes more elaborately as The Student Insurgent when they want to differentiate themselves from terrorists, which they generally don't. An altogether different paper-- The Oregon Commentator, for which I work-- scanned the Insurgent's recent issue to the web, where we host it on a link from our site. Their images had triggered a controversy on campus and elsewhere, but the Insurgent is too lazy to update their own website. We do not endorse their content, but we do endorse their and everyone else's right to print whatever they want to-- for many reasons, not the least of which is that the best way to defeat a bad argument is to get it out into the open. Thank you for the link, Robin.
