this is some work I did to prepare this eassy. the work is help us to write this paper.
Research due:
1. Before class on Tuesday, do some brainstorming and browsing on the websites of credible, mainstream news sources of the type we identified in class — some ideas from your classmates and your instructor: The Guardian, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, NPR, the BBC, The Washington Post, The Economist, Reuters, The Nation. Identify a contemporary and kairotic civic issue that you think you’d like to respond to in your Commentary Project (“civic issue” = an issue of public or community concern).
Check out this report from the Pew Research Center (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. and the latest version of blogger Vanessa Otero’s media bias chart (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. (both of which we looked at in class), if you want to dig into those questions of credibility and political bias more deeply.
2. Find three articles written in the last six months, all from sources you deem credible, about the issue you’ve identified. These might include investigative journalism, op-eds, and breaking news stories.
Writing due:
1. Write a couple sentences identifying the issue you’ve identified.
2. Write up MLA-format citations for the three sources you choose.
3. Bring print-outs of your three articles to class, or bring them on your laptop.
Research tip:
Some of the news sources you browse might use “pay walls,” making it hard for you to read articles in their entirety — the Wall Street Journal is one such publication. But, you can browse for articles on publication websites, and then find the full-text of articles by searching for them on the DU Library’s website.
Two ways to try this:
A. Use the Compass search bar on the library’s front page — a great way to search for “known sources” — that is, sources that you already know the name of.
B. Use one of the “Newspapers (Current)” databases to search — I recommend LexisNexis Academic for this.
