Hard News

For the rest of the quarter, you will have a weekly assignment to complete on your blog. Once a week, you will be required to find and post the link to an article that catches your attention. It could be any type of news except for entertainment.

After posting this article to your blog, you must do the following:

1.) Summarize the main points of the article.

2.) Why is this article newsworthy?

3.) Do you spot any bias in this article? If so, where?

4.) If you were writing this article, what would you have done differently? Why?

You must write in complete sentences and answer thoughtfully; you have an entire week to do one post. Posts will be due on the Monday of each week. If you are not staying up to par with the requirements, I will comment on your entries to let you know.

Your first post is due this Monday, October 4th.
