Teaching girls to rock

The target audience of this feature piece is most likely girls in middle school and high school who would be interested in music and mothers who would want their daughters to take up this interest. The purpose of this piece is to advertise Jessica Hooper's new book and spark and interest in music to the target audience. The author presents the information in a happy manner so that everything in the article sounds wonderful. the author appears to get all of her information from an interview with Jessica Hooper.



Proposal for feature story:
Interests: sports, buisness, cooking, exercise
I would like to do a feature story on Tim tebow. i would write about how his religious backround affect peoples perception of him as both a football player and a person. i think many people would be interested in this story because he is such a well known figure in both the sports world and pop culture.

The Warrior Weekly. AHS's news source

The Warrior Weekly is Andover high schools news source. While some of the information on the site is interesting, I find most of it is irrelevent because the "news" that is posted is usually posted awhile after people have stopped talking about it. One thing I do like about the website is that the news is simplified. It's very easy for people to understand unlike some other new sources. I think if the news is updated when it happens then the website could be a lot more interesting.
