McDonnalds job giveaway...

I think that this "job giveaway" that mcdonnalds is doing is both good and bad. it is bad because a lot of teenagers are just starting to get jobs and they can not start off well if all of the jobs that they usually do are taken by other adults. This is also a good thing as in the adults who cant get jobs in this economy can get jobs from mcdonnalds. so it is definatly good and bad.

including others...

there are many ways that i could include others into my opinion in my writing. one way I could is by interviewing people on the topic that I am writing about. for instance, if I were to write about a sports game that our states team won, than i could interview the teams players or the coach to learn about how tough it was, or i could interview the other team to get their side. Another way is to have other people working beside me, so I could get their opinion on the subject.

yearbooks...

I believe that yearbooks are journalism. i think this because you need people to take pictures for the book, also in the ones for people graduating, the students get to write a caption under their pictures, and that may disclose some information. another reason why yearbooks would be considered journalism is that the group shots in the yearbook could tell you about what classes, groups, or other things that each student was in. And finally, i think that it could be considered jounalism because it stays with you forever, just like stories written about famous people. so smile for the camera!
