Critic is the official magazine of the Otago University Students' Association (OUSA) of the University of Otago. It is freely available around both the university's campus and selected sites in Dunedin city weekly during term time. Now A4 in page size, it was tabloid in size until 2002, when it went quarterfold (around A4 size). Critic is New Zealand's longest-running student newspaper, having been published since 1925. Weekly circulation is 5500, with an estimated readership of 16,000. Critic is a member of the Aotearoa Student Press Association (ASPA). The paper has often been accused of left-wing bias in its editorial stance. [1]
