We will not be using our standard APA format this week. NO REFERENCE LIST IS REQUIRED.
Instead, cut and paste the grid from below, and fill in three sections, working offline. Then paste back into Discussion Boards. Sentence fragments are allowed in the grid. (For readability, please remove the segments you do not use.)
Include an actual headline or article fragment, and a link to where it is found. You may use political headlines—they are the easiest ones in which to find bias!

PICK JUST THREE of the boxes to fill in.
Here is an example of using the grid:
1. Biased Headline
Example (include link):
In Lieu Of Flowers, Republicans Could Honor Justice Scalia By Replacing Him
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/republicans-could-honor-justice-scalia-by-replacing-him_us_56c7bb13e4b041136f171dcd
Rationale (using Ruggerio):
: Bias is shown by belittling other side of issue. Uses flippant language and sarcasm for humor. Is editorial in tone, not unbiased news. I chose this example as one that shows how political issues bring one sided analysis in the news.
Source analysis: Huffington Post is on the grid at Hyper-Partisan Left, partially straddling the Skews Left line. It is straddling the Facts line of Analysis and Opinion; Fair Persuasion. It straddles the Yellow and Orange boxes of Fair interpretations of the news and Extreme/Unfair interpretations of the news.
