Today's blog entry has two parts!
For the first half, my current plan for presenting all I've learned, click here. Also, I'm cheating terribly, because the sariander blog is part of that plan! Sneaky, eh?
For the second half, on my use of the Times-Picayune newspaper:
Well. I always feel guilty admitting this, but I'm not really newpaper-literate. And I'm prone to dragging pages through my cereal bowl or tipping over my coffee whilst reading. Every time I pick up a newspaper, I compulsively count the number of murders discussed on the front page, and if more than one-third of the articles are about violent crimes (which is usually the case with the T-P), then I give up and go read something else. So I'm not planning on using the T-P for my final reflection paper unless I have a desperate need to fact-check.

Sarah,
ReplyDeleteIt's unfortunate that you dismiss the T-P based on the number of violent crimes included on the front page. Akin to judging a book by its cover?
I'll look forward to reading your final essay.
