You can use news stories from your local media or visit one of the Internet news services and locate a news story.  I recommend pbs.org because it is not as biased as some of the other Internet news services, but your preference will be fine.  Write a one page summary, including your opinion and send it and the news story to your instructor via the D2L Assignments feature link in the Assessments area of our home page. Be sure to save your paper as a rich text document (rtf) or docx  or pdf with the title “lastnameOpinionPaper“.
