Detecting Media Bias
ID thieves (Part A)
The reporting of the news story was clearly and accurate with sufficient depth and breadth because it mention how the identity of an account from an individual was stolen and was badgered for miss use purposes.

On this story I believe that some facts were ignore to be reported on this article because it does not clearly states if it was actually reported to police department of any other federal institute for follow up. This story does clearly states alternative perspectives because it actually states or guides the individual what to do to prevent from identity from been stolen in the future.

I do believe that there were some assumptions questionable because according to the social security department is stating on this article what do to prevent identity from been stolen after the fact when it happen and not before it happen. There were no implications ignored on this story because it clearly identifies the occurrence.

It is important to make distinctions when undertaking a critical evaluation because it is how you classify the good arguments of the item that you are valuing. This will be your source on your claims on your assessments. You need to have a source to support your claim; otherwise your presentation will not be credible.

Detecting Media Bias (Part B)
The way I would use curiosity in this topic is by encouraging people to ask questions about any doubt regarding making any payments by check or online before making them and not giving any personal information by phone or online to prevent from identity from been stolen. The reason that I think these strategies might be effective is because when people asks questions before they give any personal information by phone or online, they can figure out if it could actually be a credible source of making any payments.

In a persuasive case you are annoying to influence someone to think a convinced way based upon facts but it is bias because they are trying to agree

    I chose to do my paper on an article that I had read on Forbes.com called 'Carbon Dioxide Levels Continue To Rise, Global Temperatures Are Not Following Suit'. This is a topic that has always sparked my attention, and after reading the article I think it will be great for this type of paper. The report is more of an environmental and energy issue but I still think it falls into play with an economic report.…

    For this assignment, I used Yahoo as my search engine to come across an article that tells about the IRS current tea party scandal and how Barrack Obama is not involved in it. The article was not clear, in my opinion, because it failed to give me a complete view or enough information on what exactly is going on. I had to look elsewhere to figure out what exactly this scandal is. However, the article was accurate because some of the fact where across multiple websites that I encountered. The article is a mixture of opinion and fact. The article states that Obama did not have anything to do with this, but this is just an opinion because it has yet to be proven if he did or did not. There were also plenty facts that are being ignored, such as what exactly is the scandal and is the scandal true. I feel that an article that is defending the president should state and make it clear what exactly they are defending him from. There were no other prospective or worldviews in this story. It gave a single viewpoint, saying that Obama knew nothing about the scandal until it broke news. Throughout the article senior adviser, Dan Pfeiffer, is defending Obama and states how something like this is inexcusable and should not happen again. There are questionable assumption that were presented in this story. For example, in the article it states the Sen. Rand Paul suggest that there was a written policy to target conservative groups opposing the president, but when asked and pressed about it he could not provide any details. Also, I am still under the assumption rather or not our president knew about what was going on. I feel that this article would be different on the television rather than reading an article online. By watching it on television I will get a better understanding of what exactly is going on because they are more likely to emphasize it a little more. I think the best source to hear a article like this will…

    Lastly, lets say someone is standing at an ATM and out of nowhere someone comes up and kidnaps them. First of all, it’s caught on camera so we can tell that it happened but what if you could not tell who the victim was from the video? Are we supposed to sit around hoping that they get out okay or wait for someone else to realize that person is missing? I don’t think we should. Since everyone’s prints are in a database we can go and get the prints off the ATM, knowing there will be many so it will take a little time, and scan them to find out who was kidnapped.…

    That was just my small run in with what has become a global problem over the last decade. And, the more I delved into the reading for this topic, the more I became aware of the vast amounts of literature available to me. I felt none of the other topics for this assignment had such in depth reading, which was mostly available online to me. There was online e-books, some of which I purchased; “Identity Theft Secrets: Exposing The Tricks of The Trade” – By Dale Penn, and “Double Trouble” – by Neal O’Farrell. Research websites were also helpful, like the Gartner Research website. I found some very interesting websites online, one of which I’ll give a mention; “Publications USA” – an American government run website, it had a section to provide American consumers with information on Identity Theft. Sites like these helped me understand the impact of…
