Last day: Reflection

Through unit 2 I haven't had that much trouble finding primary sources for my paper. The Arizona immigration law is a extremely popular topic that many people in the world feel very strongly about hence the reason why there's so much information on it. The only real challenge that I was presented with was actually finding my third source. My first and second text chosen was the common perspective of Republican/Democrat, however my third was an outsider who takes perspectives from both sides.

As I started to right my paper I took a bit longer then expected to lay an outline for comparing the articles. Each text has different views but its tying these views together in the paper that I know will be challenging. I hope with the outline that I have I can stay true to proper organization while still providing vital comparisons between the three.

  1.  All provide little or none dissenting opinions for their argument
     All believe that there is a problem
     Each of them blame it on the others
     2 of them are doing it for political reasons
     All three believe that there way is right and don’t acknowledge any other perspective
     All of them use the same poll
     All of them are super serious
     All of the articles are text based
     All of them feel very strongly about the subject
     All of them targets pathos
    Differences
     Each has their own view
     One is a transcript, the other two aren’t
     One is republican, one is democrat, one is a third party
     Each has different perspectives
     Each believe in different things regarding immigration
     Each believe that the other is at fault for the problems
     Some of them discuss the other side
     O’Reilly used a prop pretty much while the others didn’t
     Only one of the authors (Marcos) acknowledges that his opinion may go against the popular norms
