"DRUG TALK ALL LIES," SNARLS HUMPHREY

 

i'd(word-I) like to place this article in editorial coumn(sp-) on p.3 or 4 on the newspaper or magazine.
the
(word-The) reason i(I) chose those vocabs(sp-) as on the article above is because i(I) tried to make my article more reasonable, not just mere dislike which led to disrespect toward Humphrey(sp-). i(I) also chose some vocabs(sp-) with stronger meaning in law, like allegations, subversive, reports, because these words represents more facts than subjective opinions.(punctuation) and because this article is an official article, i (I)think it'll be better to use words that are more polite, graceful.

 Jean’s advice: Good opinion to share, even the professional reporter sometimes needs more aspects of view to share experience. Pay more attention on the word’s usage and spelling.  
 
           Dubai court jails boy's HIV rapist 
 

Whoa .. is this some kind of racism issue?
Why did they kidnap a French boy? Why French? Why the mother was totally outraged by the sentence in the court?
I think the interesting part of this article is we can sort of guessing that the mother’s outrage was because the combination of the rapists’ race and the HIV positive. But I have a strong opinion that her outrage was primarily because of the rapists’ race.
There is a point of conflict in this article. I think according to law, a penalty of 15 years in prison is enough for such case. They didn’t kill the boy, plus the victim is of the same sex. But the mother demanded to appeal and claimed that the court concealed many evidences. I believe the process itself is not pure law; there are mistakes here and there plus hatred and revenge.

 'Cannibal' killer commits suicide

In this article, Soledad Garavito the mother of Galeana, claimed the death of Calva as divine justice. I took these words as euphemism language for “an eye for an eye”. She didn’t say directly that God will punish whomever sinful but use “divine justice” instead.
I don’t think this article is a good article. The article doesn’t provide us with enough background of the murderer. We only know that his parents abandoned him and that he was writing poem. He seemed quite normal to me. What’s his motive? Did he join some sects with cannibalistic practice? Was he a successful person? We don’t really need details but we want to see the other side of the coin. This article should tell more than just accusing him as a cannibal, as if he was wrong from the beginning or was he believed in supernatural power and stuffs.
A great point that makes this piece of news sells is (I think) novelty. Although we know that there are minorities who really eat human flesh but these people are not civilized people. Calva, is a guy from a civilized place, he even knew how to appreciate art, but he did non-human action. So is it conflict or novelty? Now I think it’s both points.

Jean’s advice: Questioning the article itself is the first step to be a good reader, not only soaking knowledge but expressing the bad materials out. Good organized opinion.
