  1. "Why courage is the only answer to Obama's Ukraine problem"
    By Tim Irwin

    This is an opinionated article about why the author, Tim Irwin, thinks President Obama is not a stable leader, especially regarding the problem with the Crimea and the Ukraine. He believes that in order to be a strong leader, you cannot have a breached core, which is what the author claims is happening to Obama. He believes unregulated power changed Obama, making him more arrogant in the office. Tim talked about the earlier signs of arrogance he saw in Obama, in 2012 ”when the president’s thinly veiled impatience at having to be on stage with his inferior to justify his policies blossomed into hubris.” The language used in this article makes the biased opinion extremely obvious from talking a lot about Obama’s lack of foreign policy courage, and his breached core.

  2. "Seattle Chopper Rotated Before Deadly Crash"

    This article talks about a news helicopter that crashed on a street next to the Space Needle in Seattle, killing the two men on board. Surveillance footage shows the helicopter began rotating at takeoff, and then pitched forward, still continuing to rotate until it went out of the camera’s view. The video didn’t catch the actual crash, in which the helicopter burst into flames, sending burning fuel into the street and catching vehicles on fire. Witnesses reported hearing unusual noises coming from the helicopter when it took off.

  3. "Pope Francis denounces 'evil, blood-stained' mafia"

    This article is about Pope Francis warning members of the mafia that they will go to hell if they don’t stop what they are doing. There was a meeting of a citizens’ group called Liberia on Friday, March 21, which had many people whose families had been affected by the mafia. That was the first time the Pope has made an appearance at one of these annual meetings. His message to the mafia was that "There's still time to not end up in hell, which is what awaits you if you continue on this path." This leads anti-mafia activists to believe the Pope sides with them on this subject.
