Non-notable blog whose claim to fame is roughly the same as LittleBizzy, which is really nothing at all. They were the subject of an otherwise unremarkable lawsuit and little in the way of any other coverage. One event which is hardly significant in itself (a negative lawsuit) doesn't equate to notability. I did find several pages of gnewshits but nothing remotely substantial and most of it is a passing mention or "collegetimes got sued" Praxidicae (talk) 17:58, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. The only real coverage about this site at all was largely about the lawsuit, and none of the coverage of it ever extended past routine news coverage. A number of the sources talking about the incident in the article are actually the CollegeTimes website itself, which of course are not valid for establishing notability, and the others are also of dubious reliability. Further searches bring up a few additional trivial mentions of the site, but nothing substantial. Rorshacma (talk) 15:54, 23 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
