Hey guys, have to pick a news article. Write about it/summarize it, then write about it in the Conflict Theory perspective and incorporate it. (Which is pretty easy because I agree with the conflict theory perspective, and I think Rand and Ron Paul do as well on some issues such as gun laws, the war on drugs, foreign policy etc)
For the remainder of the essay, you will “interpret” your news article using your chosen perspective.
a. The first section of your essay should explain this paradigm in your own words.
b. Using your chosen paradigm, how do you “see“ the events of the news article?
I chose conflict theory obviously...the one I agree with the most.
example:
The right to bear arms doesn't apply to just the rich and powerful.
Rand Paul Points Out Hypocrisy of Rich and Powerful People with Armed Guards Trying to Restrict Gun Ownership for the Rest of Us

BOOM conflict theory, but the article isn't so long so it'll be REALLY hard writing 6 pages with just that article. I CAN use more than one, like that link right there can be the 'main' one.
appreciate any help here guys...Should I stay focused on just 1 category such as gun laws? orrrr....? I can write on the war on drugs...? the fed? lol I can seriously right about anything that relates to Ron or Rand Paul because you can incorporate conflict theory easily
