@bpolitics #comm40 This article had a really good hard news lead which gave all of the 5 W's in a clear and concise manner. Any person just glancing at this article would know exactly what is happening after the first paragraph.

[Alex Arenson @AlexArenson15]

@politico #comm40 this article did a really good job of first explaining what is happening now with Jan. 6 commission being blocked, and then getting into the background of the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol .

@nytimes #comm40 in contrast to my last post, by introducing Simone by name, the piece will generate attention because she is such a high profile athlete not only in America, but around the world.

[Alex Arenson @AlexArenson15]

@itvlondon #Comm40 By not introducing Sasha's name in the lead and instead introducing her as a BLM activist, it will immediately draw more attention to the article because readers aren't as likely to know Sasha Johnson by name, but by her association with the BLM.

@latimes #comm40 With this article, they used a soft news lead that was very intriguing. While it didn't give any specific information, the reader knows that it is about Californians blaming the governor for the power outages by connecting the title with the lead.

[Alex Arenson @AlexArenson15]

@thedailybeast #comm40 I think part of why this article will generate attention is because people on both sides of the political spectrum will want to learn more, either because they are in favor of it or because they will be against it.

[Alex Arenson @AlexArenson15]

@thesundaytimes #comm40 this is another soft news lead, but slightly less effective. I know from the article title what it will be about, but the lead goes back to the basics of covid and does not reference at all the long term effects of covid that the rest of the article addresses.

[Alex Arenson @AlexArenson15]

@latimes #comm40 I think the way this article opened up was really clever. By beginning with a statement about transgender rights, the journalist made the article about more than politics and making the article more intriguing to the reader.

[Alex Arenson @AlexArenson15]

@nytimes #comm40 This journalist chose to use a soft news lead and began with a question. I think this was effective for this article because she used a question that likely many other Americans are also wondering. This will draw their attention to the article.

[Alex Arenson @AlexArenson15]

@juliehdavis @nytimes @lukebroadwater #comm40 this lead is interesting. It has the 5 elements, but the way it is stated, there is a clear perspective of the author.

[Alex Arenson @AlexArenson15]

#comm40 This lead gives all of the 5 elements so the reader knows exactly what it will be about in the beginning.

[Alex Arenson @AlexArenson15]

@AP_Europe #comm40 Because this was such a recognizable and historic building, the tragedy of the fire was big news. Its restoration is also big news. This lead gives a when, a who, a where, a what, and a way, so it is very effective.

@ReutersScience #comm40 Many college students have had covid, I am wondering if this effects people of all ages or if it is age specific?

[Alex Arenson @AlexArenson15]

@CalMatters #comm40 this could be really impact the daily lives of SCU students depending on the events that proof of covid vaccination will be needed.

[Alex Arenson @AlexArenson15]

#comm40 considering how many people are starving around the world, the problems should theoretically cancel each other out.

[Alex Arenson @AlexArenson15]

@Comm40LD We could follow up with a story on desalination and how it is projected to become a more readily available source of drinking water for Californians within the next 10 years and how future droughts could be combated with this technique. #comm40

[Alex Arenson @AlexArenson15]

@SFGate #comm40 Lake Shasta, California's largest water reserve, is at 65% of its historical average and 53% of its capacity. California is about to experience a historical drought and need much preparation to counter its effects.

[Alex Arenson @AlexArenson15]

@WSJ #comm40 Yet another shipping disaster effecting the global supply chain because these two ports account for more than 1/3 of U.S. container imports suggesting that delays there impact global supply-chains continuing even after the ships are unloaded (paraphrased from article).

[The Wall Street Journal @WSJ]

With ships moving again through the Suez Canal, another big bottleneck in the global supply chain remains—this one in Southern California https://t.co/J86KNJMZlm

@AnaViLastra There was an attempt to deescalate the situation at hand, but it was rejected. #comm40
