I really enjoyed reading today's paper; it had a lot to offer. I thought that the paper's main article about the hijacking 39 years ago was very interesting, but not very well written. The lead was nice, but then it just started taking all sorts of twists and turns. The organization was terrible, and it was really hard to read. It's a perfect example of how much organization matters in an article.
Even though I don't live in California, the story about the 35 year old murder scared me! Just imagining a murderer hiding in my hometown is terrifying. The writer did a great job making the reader feel like he or she should watch they're step no matter where they live.
As a huge tech geek, the business section of the paper was a blast to read. Only a couple of days ago The Times said that Amazon was going to unveil it's new tablet, and now they did! I'm not a huge fan of tablets, but I'm really impressed with the Kindle Fire. It's basically an Ipad, but $300 less. How are people not going to buy that? If it gets good reviews I may find myself saving up for it! I also thought the new cameras that the paper showcased were rather impressive as well. Expensive, but impressive.
After yesterday's pictures on the front page, I realized that the photos really do improve the quality of the paper. Today's paper didn't really have any noteworthy photos, so hopefully next week they will have some good ones!
