Freedom of Speech and Freedom of Press Discussion

 

Discussed in the media during the class. Find examples of themes raised in my lectures, class readings

Many of the topics that we discuss in the class will also be discussed in the media during the class.  You may earn up to three points of extra credit by identifying up to three articles in the print media (one point each) that were published during the period that the class was meeting that discuss a topic that we have analyzed. 

Please use major newspapers that do much of their own reporting, such as the New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/), the Wall Street Journal (https://www.wsj.com/), or the Los Angeles Times (http://www.latimes.com/ (Links to an external site.)).

You will need to review these articles and find examples of themes raised in my lectures, class readings. 

When you have found such an example, you will need to write a description of how the article offers evidence of the phenomenon raised in the class discussions (or a discussion of why you think an article offers evidence that contradicts such a phenomenon). These descriptions can be brief – no more than 150 words each. You should also include a link to the article or a full citation to the article.
