Yes, this article definitely exudes good journalism. The journalist did an amazing job informing the audience of the potential long and short-term benefits of "smart bikes". The concept of "bike sharing" is innovative, as well convenient for city dwellers (as mentioned in the article). I also liked how the pros and cons were weighed out; that was an effectice tactic by the journalist to compell me to read on and gain some more knowledge and perspective.

Yes, in my opinion, this is good journalism. The article was very informative, as well as resourceful. I found this particular article to be even more intriguing because this 16-year-old girl went missing in Baltimore, the neighboring city of where I'm currently attending school. I feel like this journalist did a good job informing the Baltimore community the specific ways to help/contribute to this ongoing missing person's case.

Yes, I would consider this to be good journalism. Although it wasn't a very long article, I was able to grasp the general concept and interpret the 'big picture'. I felt that this was a relatively fair, factual, well-written article. It was short and sweet and directly to the point, which I liked.

Yes, this was exceptionally good journalism. This was a very well-written article in that I was given valid points made by both sides of the debate. The resources and factual details that this journalist used made reading this article all the more enticing and intriguing. Overall, this was a great read and very informative; I can't wait to follow up on this article and see what's decided in this matter.

This article showed some evidence of pretty good journalism. What I ultimately took away from this was that there's a somewhat controversial drilling process that's attempting to be passed by the Senate. However, I feel like a few more details/specifics needed to be explained in further detail because I'm left wondering what this "fracking" drilling method actually entails. I would've like for the journalist to explain why this hydraulic fracturing is such a controversial topic.

Yes, this article exudes very good journalism. There were a lot of different topics/bills discussed in this article, and after reading this, I obtained a lot more knowledge about the current issues our Senate is faced with. The best part about this article was the sources, specifically when the Senate members were quoted and gave their inputs.

Yes, this is good journalism. Working on these schools' expansions is a pressing matter, and this journalist thoroughly stated the facts in a detailed manner, furthermore, stressing the urgency of the situation. This article was very well-written and informative; these superintendents are admirable for trying to take the initiative and jumpstart the long overdue construction process for these deserving schools.

I felt like this was pretty mediocre journalism. The article was only fairly informative in that it got its main point across, which was Mfume wasn't going to be running for the mayoral position nor was he worthy of the position. I also felt like this journalist was forcing his personal opinions of Mfume (particularly his scandalous past) on the audience.

I feel as if the same-sex marriage debacle is just another one of those issues that's going to take more time for people to adjust to and accept--the same way it took a long time for women/minorities to be given the same rights/opportunites as everyone else in this country. I can't imagine what it'd be like to constantly battle such adversity on a regular basis. So much for all men being created equal... We've come quite a long way, but apparently not far enough yet.

I found this article to be interesting because a lot of the times in the news (especially lately), we've mostly been hearing about immigration issues out on the West Coast (for ex., California, Arizona, etc.). It was definitely refreshing to hear about those same issues but just closer to home. Also, I feel as if the Martha's Vineyard locals are a little harsh on the Brazilians. Yes, they're here illegally and don't pay taxes like the rest of us and, therefore, aren't awarded the ... More »
