[edit] History
The Tribune was founded in 1901 as the first daily newspaper in Columbia. Before 1901, news was offered by three weeklies, the Missouri Intelligencer, The Columbia Patriot and The Columbia Statesman. In 1905 the Waters/Watson family bought the newspaper and continues to operate it to this day.
[edit] Game Over
Started in 2006, Game Over is a video game themed blog and weekly column in the Columbia Tribune. On December 31, 2006 the Columbia Tribune reported that the Game Over article Wii’s democracy makes mockery of meritocracy generated 16,766 hits, the ninth most of the year for their site.[2] The column was originally written by Greg Miller, but in 2007, he moved on to work for IGN.[3] Game Over is currently written by Paul Dziuba, who was hired specifically for the column.
