After carefully reading each of the three articles provided below, complete a written periodical analysis for each article. You will be expected to identify and examine examples of bias and assumption in each of these articles. Additionally, you will need to comment on how language is used to sway the reader’s thinking, and whether or not this significantly impacts the validity of each article. As you write your responses, be sure to address all of the guiding questions that are listed at the top of the Periodical Analysis document in the Deliverables section. Each of the analysis documents you write will need to be 300–500 words in length and make reference to specific parts of each of the articles. You may include direct quotes from the articles with appropriate in-text citations. (See the Citing Your Sources website in the Supporting Materials section for more information on citations.)
