Rena Adler- Thesis Statement

Following an event, different newspapers and forms of media elect to convey or omit certain facts or details so as to effectively cater to the diverse needs and desires of their respective readers. For instance, following the tragic bridge collapse in Minneapolis , Minnesota, The Guardian, a British newpaper, overtly states problems found in American infrastructure, “77,000 Bridges in Need of Urgent Repair”. Conversely, American newspapers such as The New York Times and New York Post work to tone down the severity of the matter, “States Across the Country Race to Inspect Bridges”.
