Drama Analysis Prompt
Introduction
This assignment is meant to engage with two of the topics we’ve been focused on—drama as a method of storytelling and characters as a crucial element of them.
Fictional characters are portrayed through the characters’ actions and reactions as well as other characters’ actions and reactions to them, by the way they appear, by what they say, by what they do, and by what others say about them.
A character analysis presents the reader with a critical view of a dynamic character, and evidence to support your view must come from the work itself.
Prompt
Choose a character from Euripides Bacchae and, providing textual evidence , argue for an interpretation of that character. What sort of person are they? What are their motivations? Then, once you argue for this interpretation, briefly explain why your interpretation matters to the overall story. Why does this character need to be who they are for the purposes of the story? How does the story shape that character?

Explore the historical issues of bias in both news sources and how that might affect coverage.
About this Assignment
Bias has a distorting effect on how facts are presented and interpreted by different audiences. National news networks must make decisions about what stories to run, how to present what happened, and what order to tell those stories in. Bias can be a powerful factor in how the news is reported. Your paper should be at least 2500 words.
Prompt
Select two national news shows (do not use local news shows) that air on the same day from two different major networks (from networks such as CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, etc. Do not choose local news shows). Note the similarities and differences between each network in terms of which stories both networks report, which stories are covered by one and not the other, and what differences there are in the stories they choose to report.
· Summarize the stories and the way they were reported including a note of body language, word usage, and omissions.
· Explore the historical issues of bias in both news sources and how that might affect coverage.
· Discuss how viewers only watching one of these sources might get a different sense of current events than one watching the other.
· Discuss what steps each source could take to reduce their bias.
