• How might you use the strategies for applying creativity to problems and issues in addressing this topic?
I would use the novel approach with a few things, first I would use it to encourage readers to research each candidate, get all the facts available and second I would be sure to have both good and bad facts as part of the article its self not as part of the end of the article, however I do like the links to other articles that pertain to that issue. I would also try to improve what the writer of the article said; I think I would have added more about this year’s campaign slogan and what the president has on his to do list. I might even ask for reader comments, or their answer to a particular question. This would incorporate the

I would ask the readers questions as well as give them the answer, this helps them to think more in-depth about the topic.
• How might you use the various methods for producing ideas to eliminate the bias from the original article and still present a factual and persuasive case?
I think I would put all of my ideas down on paper, and put all the ideas of the article down on paper, then I would match up the ideas I have that the article also has and put them first on my list. Then the ideas we have that are different I would use the stages of the creative process to help me figure out which are bias and which are fact and put the facts with the like ideas (that I also used the creative process stages to be sure they were factual). To finish off the article I would use words that have been said recently by the president in his new campaign to hopefully make the readers want to research the campaign and what he stands for more in depth. To be honest though I believe the writer of this article did not have much if any bias as they states facts, and good points, and they also were sure to not be to positive or to negative, therefor I would not really need to rewrite this article to eliminate bias as it does not seem to exist. The article the way
Many articles, especially those within the opinion section of a newspaper or a magazine, will often contain elements of rhetorical strategies. These rhetorical strategies help enhance the argument that is presented in the article and thus,in most cases, help the reader come to the same conclusions that the author came to while writing this article. Yet, When there is use, there is also misuse. It is through this case that even some misuse of the rhetorical strategies can lead a well balanced opinion article to become a very bias “puff piece.” One of the main examples of this, especially pertaining to the use of persuasion ( ethos, logos and pathos), is in an opinion piece written by Jason Lee Steorts for The Atlantic. This article was titled “When Should Cops Be Able to Use Deadly Force?” and for a controversial issue, the author used copious amounts of rhetorical strategies to conform to his own bias, ineffectively used supporting and opposing sources and committed fear mongering in some cases. All of which clearly indicate to the reader the poor attempts to compensate for the lack of legitimate evidentiary support in his arguments in this article.
“You can never tell a book by it's cover”, just as Edwin Rolfe wrote, you can not tell what an article is saying just by its heading. The article I chose to write on was “Ontario’s minimum wage jumping to $15 in 2019”. This article talks about the promised plan to raise the minimum wage. I felt that the article argued both sides but was leaning towards the negatives of the promises. However, like most other articles, this one also lacked input from the people that it would affect the most, such as the small businesses, and input from several reliable experts. The author, had an excellent choice of words and made the quotes both defend and argue for both sides. Still, the argument was a little biased, and argued a bit more that these are only promised changes, and that this procedure is only to campaign, and not for the public’s benefit.

1. For each writer/article presented, write a 5-7 sentence summary of their article. Remember to include the author 's name and the article title in the first sentence of the summary. Describe the arguments each author makes, but keep your tone neutral/unbiased/reporter-like.
All newspaper articles have an author and all authors are human, just like the rest of the people in this world, so they are bound to have an opinion. Therefore the presence of bias, even in the most credible of sources, is inevitable For example, in one article about the repeal of Obamacare it will go on and on about how the repeal is great for those with pre-existing conditions. On another hand other article will be extremely against the repeal because it’s going to really hurt those with pre-existing conditions. Another example, would be the story of the doctor being dragged off a United Airlines plane. Some newspaper will just tell you the fact that he was dragged off the plane in a brutal way and some newspapers will tell you how he was escorted off and then snuck back onto the plane and then resisted to leave the second time he was asked to leave. If someone only hears
How might you use the strategies for applying creativity to problems and issues in addressing this topic?
With this year being the year that a new president takes over, there has been a lot of news surfacing that may or may not be true. When looking at an article we must look at different criteria of things like the facts used, names mentioned, publication dates, and altogether the article and what it is saying.
The news topic I used to evaluate the four different types of news coverage was DACA, or Deferred Action of Childhood Arrivals. I chose this topic because it is controversial and something people have many different opinions about, I knew I could find specific bias in its media coverage. DACA is also a very popular topic right now and has been in the news for a while now, so I thought there would be a good variety of news to evaluate. I chose to evaluate a mainstream, alternative, critical, and social media news source. Theses sources were CNN, Reveal, The American Prospect, and Twitter. I found that most of these articles included some sort of political bias, usually leaning in the same way, some having more than others. The news articles also focused on different aspects of DACA and each provided unique
I believe this whole article in general is biased. The title “5 Reasons to Vote for Trump” makes one believe they will get 5 legit reason as to why Trump should be president, as you start reading one realizes that they are reasons, but not favorable ones. In this article the reporter is making subjective comments about a presidential candidate, thus favoring their opponent. Words that came
I read an article on Forbes, titled "Marijuana Use During Pregnancy: Here's How Much It Has Risen," written by Bruce Y. Lee. The article is both informative and persuasive. Throughout the work, the author lists many facts, with credible citations, about the dangers of smoking marijuana while pregnant and how the number of cases has drastically increased. The persuasiveness of the article is found when Lee pushes his political agenda against marijuana, with facts that are not relevant to the specific topic. Overall, the article I reviewed contains pertinent information but would be more powerful if it did not have bias.
Argument structures have three different categories, appeals, focuses, and framings, each one to shape the material that is being presented. Appeals are as they sound in order to gravitate someone, to give it some flare in order to become desirable in the aspect of being read. In a research article this can be demonstrated in the form of writing about the newness of things such as the new findings, the new discovery, new research, new testing, anything that can be new and be shown off is inserted. On the other side of the spectrum a popular science article will want to share what is able to be sold or what is worth reading, just a gossip magazine is picked up more than a cooking magazine, it is all about knowing your audience and how to engage them.

To make a business grow and achieve productive and efficient results you need to invoke creativity which has always been an essential business skill.

Our assigned task was to recommend a plan in order to alleviate hospital readmission among elderly population within thirty days of discharge. In this paper the author is narrating the team dynamics, functionalities and personal competencies in the process of recommending a change in the system.
