Grace - please find an article about your assigned country and redo Parts I and II.
Delete1. Who: Denmark's Prime Minister, and U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon
Delete2. What: They met together to discuss and confront the world about global warming, and the drastic climate change that has been sneaking up on us. They say we have to act on it, for it will never change or get better on its own. They also said that the Arctic is majorly changed by all of our usage of gas and other chemicals that create global warming.
3. Where: Ilulissat, Greenland
4. When: March 25th, 2014
5. Why: Both of the high ranked people believe we should try to make the world right again because on the track that we're on it won't end happily. They want to help make people recognize what we're doing to the earth and try to stop it.
2. I believe that it is a feature story because it only talks about how we need to change global warming not how this story or what has happened after these confrontations was acted upon. Sometimes powerful, respectful, and inspirational speeches aren't effective after it is said and that's what happens sometimes, mostly when dealing with global warming so I think its a feature story.

DeleteWho: the six men and one woman of a rebel group based in Sri Lanka called "Tamil Tiger"
ReplyDeleteWhat: India's Supreme Court has suspended the release of three people who were involved in the 1991 assassination of Prime Minister Rajiv Ghandi, a retaliation for sending Indian peacekeepers to Sri Lanka in 1987, during the civil war. The other four involved are serving life sentences. The three people whose releases were suspended have been jailed for 20 years and on death row since 1998.
Where: India and Sri Lanka
Why: The murder was very sudden, and many people have been expecting the releases, so when the Court decided to take a few days to keep on deciding their pleas for mercy, it had to be big news.
How: People who've been anticipating the releases, whether out of anxiety or spite, now have to predict when the Court really IS going to release them, if they even decide to. The government of Sri Lanka will direct their attention back to Tamil Tiger, if it's not there already.
I think this is a news story because this kind of news can't be reported five months from now, for example; the assassination was a big deal, and if the people involved were going to be released, you'd think people would want to know right away.
