Article of the Week #9

What you've all been waiting for, Article of the Week is back on! Recent world news events led to this one. Remember you are not grading on just whether or not you DO the assignment, I expect you to THINK about it. Identify all the basics, the title, the organization, the author, the main idea, then THINK about what you think about it. Don't tell me you don't care, don't tell me it's boring, or if you do, give me some darned good reasons behind it to explain why you think that. Little thought = little points. AND there is a video, watch it!

    the purpose is to inform people how the US got to OBL. the intended audience is enyone who is interested in the news. this article is mainly about Osama Bin Laden's death and the courior who helped us achieve that.i think it is good that we know all this so we can catch these people, and that OBL is dead because he was a big threat.

    The CNN report “Courier who lead U.S. to Osama bin Laden’s hideout identified,” by Elise Labott and Tim Lister on May 3, 2011 at 9:11 am, is about how they found Osama through one of his courier. This is written for adults in the U.S .The main idea is that they have been following him for years and the courier helped them find Osama. They first started looking for the courier in 2007. There are a few couriers that the article said could of been the one that helped them find Osama. Whoever it was, they helped lead the US forces to Osama and he was killed on Monday. I am happy that he is dead, but he still has troops that could do the same thing he did. It is OK to be relieved that he is dead, but we shouldn’t celebrate death.

    Title: Courier who led U.S. to Osama bin Laden's hideout identified

    Reactions: I think that the information told in this article is very important for somebody if they were writing a report on Osama Bin Laden's death. The information ranges from who killed him, to who killed him, to how he killed him.

    Intended Audience: Teenagers+

    The title of this article is "Courier who led U.S. to Osama bin Laden's hideout identified". It was written by Elise Labott and Tim Lister, on CNN.com and published on May 3, 2011 9:19 a.m. This article was written to let people konw about the death of Osama Bin Laden. I guess this was towards all Americans really, Osamas death is a big deal and as citzens of the U.S. we deserve the right to know. THe main idea was all about Bin Ladens death and his hideout. Obama recenetly pronouced Bin Laden dead, he was burried by sea andhis death is a relief to us all. I think its about time They found Osama, he started a lot of crap and deserved to die in the brutal way he did.

    The title of the article is "Courier who led U.S. to Osama bin Laden's hideout identified" was written by Elise Labott and Tim Laster. It is found on the CNN World website was posted on May 3, 2011 9:19 a.m. EDT. The purpose of this article is to inform the reader about how the U.S. tracked down Osama bin Laden's hideout. The intended audience is the U.S because the article is explaining how they found out Osama bin Laden's hide out. I think that finally after 10 years we found his hideout and kiled him for what he did on 9/11. This shows that the U.S. doesn't give up.

    "Courier Who Led U.S. to Osama bin Laden's Hideout Identified," is an article which was brodcasted on CNN and found on the CNN World website, posted on May 3, 2011 9:19 a.m. On this historical day, Osama bin Laden was found, captured, and killed. Many people were affected from what Bin Laden did, and not only the families affected, but also America was glad to know that Osama was dead. I think that this article/news gives a sense of releif, it's one less worry that we, as a nation, have.

    The recent article "Courier Who led U.S. to Osama Bin Laden's hideout identified" was posted on May 3, 2011, and written by Elise Labott and Tim Lister. The article tells about how Abu Ahmad led U.S. intellegence to Osama Bin Laden's hideout. It turns out, that after many years of searching, the terrorist that caused 9/11 wasnt that far from the Pakistan border. The "mansion" that the terrorist was staying at was one of the biggest buildings around, and it stood out pretty obviously. The intended audience is American citizens. My thoughts are that the Pakistan government not only knew were he was, but helped in hiding him. I also did not like how millions of Americans were celebrating his death. Although I'm glad he was caught, i dont think it is right to "celebrate" when someone dies

    This weeks article is called "Courier who led U.S. to Osama bin Laden's hideout identified."An article on CNN, and published by Elise Labott and Tim Lister on May 3, 2011. It is about how a man named Abu Ahmad led the U.S. to Osama in Pakistan.I'm glad he's dead! He got what he deserved for what he did on 9-11. You can't just get away with killing thousands of people. What person in their right mind would do that in the first place. I think that the U.S. needs to just be happy that he's dead and move on because dragging this subject of Bin Laden on isn't going to help anyone.

    the title of this weeks article is " Courior who led U.S. to Osama Bin Laden's hideout identified." the authors are Elise Labott and Tim Lister. it was posted on may 3. Thisvideo talked about an unnamed courier of Osama Bin Laden. The United States governmemt used tactics to get information out of the courier about Osama Bin Laden and where he is hiding. I think the target audience is just any american who rememeber 9-11 and wants to know how we found out where the hide and seek champion was hiding this whole time. I think it was a very cool video becuase it somewhat told what happened and how we found uut where the mass murder Osama Bin Laden was hiding.

    This week's article of the week is called, "Courier who led U.S. to Osama bin Laden's hideout identified." By Elise Labott and Tim Lister, found on the CNN website. this article is talking about how the U.S found Osama bin Laden, and how we were able to kill him. The intended audience is for mature people only. In my opinion, yes it is good that we found and killed this horrible man, but i think it may have hurt America. Even though the leader of Al Quida is dead, now the rest of the members are even more furious at us and want to hurt our country EVEN MORE now that their leader is dead.
