As I told you previously, I am obviously not in school today. SO...to make it productive and fun (I hope) read the following.
DUE AT THE CLOSE OF CLASS TODAY: We have looked at mainstream news sources this year, but there are what are referred to as alternative sources. As with all news, one must bring a critically thinking mind and an awareness of sponsorship.
1. Take a look at the link below. You will find a list of alternative news sites.
2. Browse through the list and choose three alternative sites to explore.
3. On a word document write down your three choices
4. Beside each list at least one of the sponsoring advertisers.
5. Beside each write a minimum of 25 words of what political / social / economic perspective is being represented by this particular news source. This can be ascertained by looking over the headlines and lead sentences of an article.
Here's the link for the list of alternative news sources:http://www.world-newspapers.com/alternative-news.html
Please send along.
