News Subject Research (2 Sources)


Research information on your news subject from two reliable sources. You do not need to print the articles; however, you must include a proper MLA citation (the format was included on last week’s homework). 
For each source, you must:

  • Provide an MLA citation
  • Summarize the overall content of the article, being sure to hit the most important points. (1 paragraph)
  • Evaluate the credibility of the source. Explain what details about the publisher, author(s), image(s), and content make it credible (1 paragraph)

Goals are to gather relevant information from published and original sources that will support the writing of a news article.

Exemplary Work will include detailed summaries of news sources with careful consideration of credibility and focus on thoughtful questions in transcripts that are word-for-word transcriptions of conversations.
