Link to article: http://latino.foxnews.com/latino/politics/2014/05/30/officials-under-fire-for-dumping-illegal-immigrants-in-us/ So, I decided to end these blog posts with a bang and do something I don’t think I’ve ever done before – voluntarily read Fox News. Despite the source the article/page follows just about the same pattern as most multimedia pieces I have found. There is basically a formula. First, video/stills. […]

Link to article: http://espn.go.com/los-angeles/nba/story/_/id/11008952/nba-approves-steve-ballmer-bid-buy-los-angeles-clippers I decided to venture back to the sports world of journalism.

Link to article: http://www.cnn.com/2014/05/30/world/africa/meet-armless-table-tennis-champion/index.html?hpt=wo_t3 This article from CNN – unlike the “5th Blog Post” – is the epitome of a mutlimedia article.

Link to article: http://www.cbssports.com/nba/eye-on-basketball/24577152/donald-sterling-to-file-1-billion-lawsuit-against-the-nba This article is about the now infamous former-Clippers owner Donald Sterling. This CBS Sports article may not be the epitome of the perfect MULTI-media article. It does have a visual, like most online articles, but there are two reasons I decided to use this article. The first reason is that this […]
