Choose a recent story and compare/contrast how it was covered across three different news media outlets. If you’re dealing with a big topic (say, the elections or the war in Ukraine), choose one specific incident/event to focus your analysis. The important goal of this assignment is to find interesting differences between each outlet’s coverage of the same story. Quoting specific examples, demonstrate how the same topic was presented differently across these different news media outlets. Are they quoting from different sources or relying on different information? Did you find one more persuasive or effective than the others? If so, explain why. Three pages, double-spaced.
