Abstract
This activity requires students to compare and contrast characteristics of popular or commercial news stories with public interest news stories. Students will make critical distinctions between different kinds of information that coexist under the broad umbrella of “news” in a contemporary information ecosystem. Instructors should provide students with the worksheet for this activity.
