World News! :o



Hey people!!!!!! So this week our blog was suppose to be on censorship so here it is...
For two days I have been following CNN.com to gather news that are happening around the world not just in Houston.

Links to stories I followed:
1. Story about a brain eating amoebas:

Response to questions:
When I saw these stories I observed that the world is not a perfect place at all! There's all kinds of horrible situations happening everywhere. From brain eating substances to a girl getting raped in India...that's some bad stuff. As I was just looking through the website other stores that were similar to these stories had come up. Like there was a little girl named Jessica that was gone missing and was maybe kidnapped in Colorado. There was diversity among each news around the world there's wasn't just one specific news. The story of brain eating amoebas I found really important because it has be a hazard when you go swimming in fresh water like rivers so you just have to be cautious about that. I think these stories are chosen by media outlets by maybe organizing each story from the most  to least important so that we can know the important things first if it applies to us.
