The newspaper article was very strongly worded in its topic. It hit every point extremely well and left nothing out to be guessed or to confuse the readers. Every article or blog was pretty long except for the scholarly source. That was more statistics than anything else, but it helped nonetheless. As for paragraph length, the newspaper article had very brief paragraphs, but there were many written so it didnt do much to take away from the power of the article. The scholarly source was pretty much one long, ongoing paragraph. Again, it was mostly a list of statistics with a few points and key phrases here and there. The blog had really decent sized paragraphs, and they all helped to convey the topic very clearly. As for the sentence structure and length, each was very impressive and obviously had intelligence built into them. The only problem being, again, the scholarly source was one big paragraph basically. Word choice was not a hard one to decide on for these different sources. Each source had pretty high level wording somewhere in the mix, so there was definitely an intelligent mind working on them all at some point in time. Relationship to the reader, and the topic, was neutral for the most part. There was no bias that i could detect in any of the articles, which is a very good thing in my opinion. Sometimes we need a "distance" from a topic to see it clearly. There were no real picture or graph usage for these sources, except for the newspaper article to show pictures from a show mentioned in the text. For the most part, each of these articles were very intelligently written, and had a lot of power and meaning behind them. I feel these sources would be an excellent place to start researching about the ongoing battle about for- and against- abortion.
