        <![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.propublica.org/article/fda-let-drugs-approved-on-fraudulent-research-stay-on-the-market">This lengthy article</a> by ProPublica is about the FDA's faulty approval process of drugs available on the market. </p>

<p>I noticed something about the links in the article: nearly all of them went to other parts of propublica.org. This tells me that the website has done a lot of research on this topic, because all of their attribution is from other parts of their site. It also tells me, however, that all of their information has come from their website, which can present some bias.</p>

<p>The writers do a good job of embedding the links within the text so that it's not too difficult to see where they got their sources from. The writers didn't do the best job of web writing because of the massive amounts of text in the article. It's fine if there is a lot to read, but no white space made me feel as if I would never get to the end.</p>

<p>But, the writers also utilize the perks of web writing by integrating information boxes on the sides of the article, and enabling comments so that users can leave feedback or other information that might be pertinent to the topic.</p>]]>

<p>Bob Davis, a conservative co-host of the "Davis and Emmer" weekday morning show on KTCN (AM 1130), was offered to have a paid trip to repeat what he said to the families of the Newtown shootings.</p>

<p>Davis argued that he's sick and tired of seeing the victims of the Sandy Hook school shooting becoming advocates for the national debate on gun control. He said that "[everyone is] terrified of these victims...I would stand in front of them and tell them, 'Go to hell.'"</p>

<p>Davis responded to the controversy created due to his comment, saying that he has no filter when he speaks on the air, the <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/04/18/bob-davis-sandy-hook-go-to-hell_n_3109781.html">Huffington Post</a> said.</p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p>An email sent April 1 by a New Hampshire legislator referring to women as 'vaginas' is sparking controversy, the <a href="http://bostonherald.com/news_opinion/national/northeast/2013/04/nh_legislator_calls_women_vaginas_in_house_email">Boston Herald</a> said.</p>

<p>Republican Peter Hansen of Amherst was referring to a speech given by another lawmaker which discussed an easy retreat.</p>

<p>According to messages posted online by blogger Susan Bruce, Hansen wrote: "There were two critical ingredients missing in the illustrious stories purporting to demonstrate the practical side of retreat. Not that retreat may not be possible mind you. What could possibly be missing from those factual tales of successful retreat in VT, Germany, and the bowels of Amsterdam? Why children and vagina's of course. While the tales relate the actions of a solitary male the outcome cannot relate to similar situations where children and women and mothers are the potential victims."</p>

<p>House Republican Leader Gene Chandler said that the comments are unprofessional and do not reflect the opinions of the Republican Party, the <a href="http://www.twincities.com/national/ci_23043272/nh-legislator-calls-women-vaginas-house-email?source=rss">Pioneer Press</a> said.</p>

<p>Hansen, 70, said Tuesday that he doesn't regret the remark, and the context of the word choice was to create shock content, and to get in the mind of "the perpetrator." He argued that the situation has been "totally blown out of proportion."</p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.startribune.com/local/minneapolis/202872731.html?page=all&prepage=1&c=y#continue">This article from the Star Tribune</a> discusses how Minneapolis houses most of Minnesota's Level Three sex offenders, and the implications that creates for both the sex offenders and the people who live in the city. This is obviously a very different group of people than myself. Most people would not identify themselves with Level Three sex offenders, however, due to taking classes on sexuality, I think that I am more comfortable with the topic than most people.</p>

<p>For news organizations and media outlets in general, sex offenders are a risky topic to cover. They provide an interest because parents want to protect their children, but also discussing offenders means that they must go into gory details. In this particular article, the reporter interacts with sex offenders and has quotes directly from them. The unnamed quotes from the offenders perpetuates the stereotype that sex offenders are ghostly, untouchable criminals. The article reflected the way society views sex offenders, but tries to do it in an unbiased way. By writing about how difficult life can be for offenders after they are released from prison, the reporter is acknowledging the often-neglected fact that offenders are people who have made mistakes.</p>

<p>The sources the reporter used in this story range from landlords who do or do not rent to offenders, people who live near offenders, offenders themselves, and authorities who work with the offenders in rehabilitation. These sources help to diversify the angles that the story takes, and ultimately foster an attempt to be as unbiased as this topic can allow. </p>]]>

<p>Symptoms of the 'bad meth' use include hyper-anxiety, combativeness, and fevers of 105 degrees. Authorities believe the bad meth came from Mexico, but are now concerned with its widespread use in the east metro cities, the <a href="http://www.startribune.com/local/east/202847931.html?refer=y">Star Tribune</a> said.</p>

<p>Police want users to know that they are more concerned with safety than arrests, and if anyone is experiencing side effects from using the tainted drug, they should go to a hospital immediately.</p>]]>

<p>The investigation is still ongoing, however Burnsville police said that the remains may belong to a 61-year-old man who has been missing for a year. Lorenzo Pacheco Orozco had dementia, and hasn't been seen after leaving for a walk in April 2012, the <a href="http://www.twincities.com/localnews/ci_23024044/burnsville-remains-found-park-might-be-missing-mans?source=rss">Pioneer Press</a> said.</p>

<p>No foul play is suspected in Orozco's disappearance.</p>]]>
