For this assignment, I was asked to find and analyse three online news story. I chose this particular one from The Fox 31 website, Which is about a woman who admitted to beating her child, and gluing her hands to a wall.
The first sentence is telling you all about the sentencing that “Elizabeth Escalona” will receive for committing these crimes. They tell us all about her sentencing, and a couple of the things she said. It also lets us know how she feels about everything.
As you read on, you are given the most important pieces of information you need to remember after shutting down and walking away from your computer:
Elizabeth Escalona is pleading guilty.
She believes she has no excuse for what she did.
She does not believe she is a monster.
Next, the article gives us the Five W's of their news story.
When: This is a current news story, From October 8, 2012.
Why: The alleged abuser is getting charged with multiple accounts of abuse, and neglect.
Where: Dallas, TX
What: It is giving out details on the sentencing of Elizabeth Escalona
Who: A woman guilty of child abuse.
The ending is very disappointing. The woman pleads guilty and the end of the story.
