In class today...

Today we discussed newspapers and how the major newspapers for the big cities have some similarities as well as many differences. The points of how each paper is affected by their owners was the ost important piece of information presented in class. I never would have thought of how the owner of a major newspaper can affect the way the writers talk about a certain topic or issue. Now that I know this bit of information, I will look closer at a topic discussed in a newspaper, as the information may be slighly altered in a way that the owner desires it to be. Also, knowing that the source of information can be affected, I will research mulpitle sources to find my answeres, so that way I can somewhat gather a census and make sure that the authorities of the news sources are accurate. With the issues discussed in class, I have realized that certain topics and issues may not be as accurate as people think them to be. I have noticed that issuses need to throughly researched, as topic delevopment today may lead to inadequate or misleading information.
