Peer Review: Sophia Goldberg

Here is where you can read Sophia's awesome writing: http://sophiawritessometimes.blogspot.com/

My friend Sophia's blog has a common theme: passion. As a fellow student, I know that it is hard to actually engage in an assignment and to put forth more effort than necessary, but from reading her writing I can tell that she did. She provided not just a summary of class discussions, but also how each one can be applied to life.
I really enjoyed her post about fact checking. I totally agree with her point that some news stations are forgetting that journalism is based upon facts, and are instead succumbing to the pressures to receive good ratings. She used the example of how people who argue that vaccines cause autism are receiving air time, even though their points are not true. But, they are attention grabbers...
I recommend Sophia's blog to those seeking an in-depth analysis of the topics we are coving in class. I admire the way she doesn't just list, but explain.
