        <![CDATA[<p>http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/technology/netflix-ceo-says-future-of-tv-is-in-apps/2013/04/26/f21f5cce-adc7-11e2-98ef-d1072ed3cc27_story.html</p>

<p>The reporter used a lot of statistics and data, and trend information for the article. In one half of a paragraph, there are a number of figures used: "Its revenue, which exceeded $1 billion for the first three months of 2013, was a record. Minutes after the figures were announced Monday, Netflix stock soared more than 23 percent." The reporter would need a working knowledge of how stocks work, and how to accurately identify and report trends.</p>

<p>The article has a couple accompanying multimedia. The first is a side-by-side comparison of the biggest Web TV services (Netflix, hulu, etc). There is also a comment section. Both are intended to engage the reader, and help them understand the story. There are also hyperlinks scattered throughout the story which lead to other stories or information for further reading. </p>]]>

<p>Near the end of the service, a man in his 20s went up to the choir area and began to attack. The injuries were not life-threatening, according to the <a href="http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_CHURCH_STABBING?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2013-04-28-16-34-00">AP.</a></p>

The church, St. Jude Thaddeus Catholic, is considered to be a megachurch of the area. The attack may have happened during the Spanish mass. Parishioners grabbed the man, according to some reports, as reported by <a href="http://www.hispanicallyspeakingnews.com/latino-daily-news/details/just-in-church-goers-stabbed-2-critically-at-new-mexico-catholic-church/24122/">Hispanically Speaking News.</a></p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p>Find a news story or a feature about a cultural group different from your own. Discuss whether and how the story moves beyond stereotype into something more substantive. Be specific. What sources did the reporter tap to gain information?</p>

<p>Article: http://www.startribune.com/sports/twins/mlb/202430681.html</p>

<p>It moves past stereotypes, but the article really only interviewed higher-up officials and discussed statistics. An interview or two from black baseball players, or aspiring black baseball players, would have rounded out the article. </p>

<p>The article uses a lot of direct quotes-- the last two paragraphs are just direct quotes-- so that doesn't leave much room for the author's own voice, or for the article to get very in-depth.</p>]]>

<p>The man was killed by gunfire when a SWAT entered the house. The firefighters had minor injuries from a flash-bang grenade detonated by an officer as the team entered, according to <a href="http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/04/10/firefighters-held-hostage-georgia/2071969/">USA Today</a>.</p>

<p>The man, who has not yet been identified, put in a fake 911 call around 3:30 Wednesday. When 5 firefighters arrived, he held then hostage. The man allowed one firefighter to leave to move the fire truck, according to the <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/11/us/man-takes-firefighters-hostage-and-dies-in-raid-police-say.html?ref=us&_r=0">New York Times</a>.</p>

<p>The man was facing eviction, and during the situation asked for his utilities be turned back on, according to <a href="http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/04/10/firefighters-held-hostage-georgia/2071969/">USA Today</a>.<br />
