About News Sources
Newspapers, transcripts, broadcasts, and wire service files are often the first information available for an event. Apply critical thinking when judging accuracy and objectivity of any news source; government censorship, bias, and editorial position can all affect the news "as reported." Understand the differences between a news story and an editorial or opinion piece.
