The Cutting Edge 

A periodical distributed by the finer portion of the student body of Scarsdale High School. It rivals the school newspaper "The Maroon"; which is basically just annoying and pointless, The Cutting Edge has astute material and cheeky jokes which the Maroon lacks. Also, the Cutting Edge doesn't make articles about teen drinking, and take a picture from someone's facebook, and put it on the maroon. Fucking idiots.
