friday oct 12

1. -i gave my paper back to dez i don't remember the number
2. My story about freddy zamora and sinsored got published.
3. 26 people contributed to the creation of the paper.
4. My favorite photo is the picture of Freddy and Yera dancing together at prom on page 6 because it is in the moment of the prom queen and king dancing and the contact he has with her while dancing.
5. My favorite story in the paper is Sean's column, "Inside the Outside" on the opinions page, page 2, it's about his thoughts on high school and what do we knowledge we really get out of high school, it's my favorite because I think it's well written and I can relate to the point he is getting across.
6. My favorite graphic is John's drawing that is a part of Sean's story, I like it because it truly depicts the kids at school in my opinion. I think it will attract many people to the story because the drawing is interesting.
7. The news pages are my favorite because it has a good amount of both pictures, art, cutouts, and graphics. I think every things on the pages look good and isn't just a bunch of words on a page, the art and pictures bring it to life.
8. This issue I want to put more art on my page and be more creative with it since it's the entertainment page, I want to also do more cutouts, this issue I'll also take pictures for homecoming.and blue & gold night

three little pigs video

1.  The story of The Three Little Pigs was covered through the internet, newspaper, and TV.
2. It has the same concept, but through the media if was taken as a serious issue people were concerned about and protested and tweeted over.
3. They didn't really interview anyone, they filmed the police speaking about it and the rioters and what they had to say about the case.
4.  They covered the opposite opinion of the three little pigs being guilty and the debate over whether they're guilty or not.
5. They didn't cover what exactly happened as in why they murdered the wolf and the story behind it.
6. The Guardian did not express their opinion but covered the opinions of others.
7. Yes we can cover events and show different sides of a story and how people feel about a certain topic.
8. You can make it a reality by covering it, what really happened, and showing different sides of the story from others but not your opinion because you're the journalist documenting it.

ideas for next year

1. making polls and surveys would be interesting and pull more people to read the paper since they know they'd be in the paper and so would their opinions
2. definitely need to dig deeper with people we interview, start conversations with them and ask them more personal questions and ask till you get those good answers that have a lot of meaning in them
