Write a One Page Summary on the topic. You can conduct this same
experiment with any topic that interests you: contrast the reporting on the front
page of a big news event with a piece in the opinion pages (Op-Ed) that takes on
the same topic.
You can find front page stories and Opinion stories in any online newspaper or
printed newspaper.
What are the differences in the two?
What is the fact/opinion ratio in the news piece?
Is there enough evidence one way or another to determine whether
it is fact vs fiction?
Step 3: How will you use your knowledge of facts vs opinions to improve your
critical thinking and communication in your career?
