Amy Comey Barett NYT
From the teacher:
In this assignment, you will read the newspaper for one week. Pick a topic or story that is in the news that interests you. Maybe immigration reform, climate change, fashion, vaping, or whatever. For the sake of ease, you can use one newspaper but you have to read it every day. I suggest the NY Times or the Wall Street Journal as our CUNY ID & email gets you a free subscription to the these. Both have apps for your phone. Here is the link:
Press New York Times (Current Subscription Publication)
Amy Coney Barett is the topic I chose.vFrom October 13th to today, the story of Amy Coney Barrett keeps popping up in the New York Times. You can access the story on the different days when you access my New York Times account I provided.
1000-1200 word paper about the experience of following a story (Amy Coney Barrett) for a week. This will include why you chose this issue, your thoughts on how the issue is covered in the newspaper, what you learned about the issue, as well as how it feels to get your news in “long form.” While the essay is reflective, please be mindful of your audience (me) meaning mind your grammar and punctuation as well as your tone.
