know?
Journalists played an important role in how the public viewed the Little Rock Crisis. The local
Arkansas ( Gazette of Little Rock won two Pulitzer Prizes in 1957 for Public Service and Editorial
Writing. In awarding the prize, the Pulitzer Board noted, "The newspaper's fearless and completely
objective news coverage, plus its
reasoned and moderate policy, did much to restore calmness and
order to an overwrought community...
1. Write a
headline to
summarize in a fair and unbiased way why Eisenhower used an Executive
Order to desegregate Central High School. Use facts or statements from the sources to back up your
headline's point of view.
Bias
Headlines can sometimes show a newspaper's bias. Bias means to favor or preference one side over
another. For example, the Manchester Guardian (UK) subheading, ""Eisenhower redeems honour of
America," is favorable to President Eisenhower.
2. This time write another headline that is biased toward, or supportive of, President Eisenhower's
decision. Use facts or statements from the sources to back up your headline's point of view.
3. Now write a headline that is biased against, or critical of, President Eisenhower's decision. Use facts
or statements from the sources to back up your headline's point of view.

dear friend:

  i hope this letter finds you in soaring spirits and vibrant health. as you had expressed the wish to know about culture, traditions, and unity of india in your previous letter, in the following lines i have tried my best to give you glimpses of our culture, traditions, and unity. you will be amazed to know that our culture is the oldest culture in the world and the birth place of hinduism, buddhism, jainism, and sikhism. you won’t find any other culture as varied and multi-colored, multi-lingual as ours. each region has its own unique culture, traditions, language. there are 22 official languages in india.

  basically, india is a spiritual country with orthodox traditions. for example the people of india believe in traditions set by their wise forefathers. arranged marriages, joint-family system, universal brotherhood, vegetarianism, celebrating festivals such as diwali, holi, eid, etc., are the salient features of our culture and traditions.

  another unique aspect about our country is ‘unity in diversity’. in spite of the multi-lingual, multi-religious, multi-traditional, multi-cultural society, people live peacefully together, respecting one another’s views, cultures, traditions, and differences. i am sure you would love to visit india soon, and have a first-hand experience of the multi-colored culture. give regards to uncle and aunt. do visit india with your family and experience our hospitality.

your friend,
