News Comment #7

Filed under: Writing to Persuade 2011 —— Jordan Jacupke @ 12:39 PM

Fox News Article 

This article is in response to criticism about NY Times not putting information about LIbya on the front page.

 

I think this is a good article. It is an attempt to hold journalists accountable, and brings an example of “bias” (whether it is, or not) to the news. I know that I am very skeptical when reading certain sources because they typically are partial to one side or the other. The attacks in Libya have been very controversial and I think this article does well at showing that some media is down playing it. I haven’t searched too hard, but I wonder if Fox News made it a point to put the congressional hearing on the “top fold.” I think the quotes are effective. They give the story credibility.
