There was also a broadcast segment along with the article. It discussed how many Siouxlander\u2019s may be noticing purple street lamps around town and that the cause is due to a manufacturing error where a chemical compound is not mixing correctly. They also quoted the media relations manager from Mid-American saying that there is no danger with the purple lights and if you see one you are encouraged to report it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I came across this and was immediately drawn to it because I have seen so many of them around town. I will also admit that I don\u2019t care for them so it was good to know that they are not supposed to be like that. I had heard from people that they change colors when they are about to burn out and I\u2019m glad to know that is untrue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to the writing of the article it was fine. Nothing more or less. You were given the information you needed and it wasn\u2019t confusing. There was also no bias of any kind. It was relatively short so there wasn\u2019t a lot of room for it either. My only complaint was that some of the writing just felt a little odd. For example, \u201dSiouxlanders have noticed purple street lights near their houses, but that\u2019s not part of some decoration for the holidays.\u201d The second half of this sentence just feels odd. However, overall I didn\u2019t have any major problems with it and it delivered the information it needed to. I didn\u2019t have any further questions after reading it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-siouxlandproud-sioux-city-ia-news-weather-and-sports wp-block-embed-siouxlandproud-sioux-city-ia-news-weather-and-sports\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/www.siouxlandproud.com\/news\/local-news\/purple-street-lights-are-in-sioux-city\/\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Possible Feature Stories:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Day in the life of a Mid-American worker fixing the lights<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How the lights are made &#8211; chemical compound?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How the lights are replaced<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Downsides to purple vs white lights<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For this week\u2019s news comment I came across an article from Siouxland Proud \u201cWhy you may be seeing purple street lights in Sioux City\u201d written by Nikolas Wilson.
