News Comment: ‘Not Our President’ Protests
After the election results on Tuesday night thousands of people took to the streets in protest of the new president. There has been protests in Boston, Chicago, Portland, Seattle, and Washington just to name a few. Police forces have had to take action in many cities to control the protests and to help keep the protests peaceful. At least one policeman has been reported injured in the Oakland protests.
In this story by the New York Times, ‘Not Our President’: Protests Spread After Donald Trump’s Election, the writer uses great description words that really make the protests relatable. I noticed that all the people that were interviewed were latino though so I was kind of curious on why the reporter didn’t find someone different that could give a different side of view.
Possible features that could come from this are basically limitless since the Donald Trump is planning to change so much. A few features could include: “How will the Latino population be effected by the election?”, “What will Donald Trump do about the protestors?”, “Can Donald Trump be impeached because of his lawsuits?”, “Should Muslims be afraid?”, and “How does the electoral college work and why is it being used in America?”.
