Write a paragraph summary and a paragraph reaction. You do not need to talk about the bias of your article unless it is clearly slanted, in which that should at least be acknowledged.

Rule of Law?
Search and post an article addressing the topic discussed during bell ringer Tuesday - or the article read and discussed in class on Thursday. There has been much discussed and written about in the news since, so there should be a ton of analysis to consider. As before, title your post the title of the article. Include a link to your article. Write a paragraph summary and a second paragraph reaction and / or pose questions about the content.
This is due no later than Sunday midnight.
Students should interact with eachother's post. Specifically, a minimum requirement is that I can find that you posted comments to at least two classmates' posts. These comments should include evidence that you had read and thought about classmates' ideas.
Two comments are due no later than Friday's class - the 14th.
