News Comment #3

For this week I chose the article “US couple found dead in well in northern Mexico” written by The Associated Press. In the article it discusses how a couple from southern California were found in a well in Mexico. The cause of the death is unknown, but the two had been missing since September 2nd. There was also a mention of a completely unrelated death of another man in southern California who had been stabbed.

This article relates to a lot about what we had been discussing in class. It is written in small paragraphs, not too long to read. The first paragraph answers the ‘who, what, when, and where’ questions. Also, the mentioning of a completely random death that is not related to the story, has no point in being in this paper. Makes sense why it is at the end, but it just confuses the reader.

    I sort of agree about the “random” guy at the end, but I think ABC may have seen (or be suggesting) them as connected. Maybe they’re just saying Mexico isn’t safe for American tourists.
