choose two essays/editorials on an issue of your choice from a nationally syndicated newspaper or magazine (i.e., Detroit Free Press, New York Times, Time, Newsweek). Both essays/editorials must be on the SAME subject, from two different perspectives -- for example, FOX might have an essay on the current state of the US in the COVID pandemic; the New York Times will have a different point of view.

Your task: compare and contrast:

1) summarize the major points of each (as in week one's assignment)

2) compare the "bias" or "slant" the essay or editorial demonstrates; how does it make its points? What words does the essay use? Does the essay rely upon fact, emotion, or rhetoric?

3) your conclusion: What is the bias, and how demonstrated? Be sure, always, to cite and reference. QUOTE the editorial/s in your essay.
