For this assignment, you will use a graphic organizer to monitor and analyze multiple global news outlets across a period of time. Once you have completed your organizer, you will answer key questions about
the media’s coverage of a story and how this coverage changed and developed over time.
Background Information
In today’s world, global media outlets such as websites, newspapers, and magazines give their readers
up-to-the-minute coverage of breaking news and events from across the globe.
In the 24-hour news cycle, stories are constantly unfolding with the addition of new information and
perspectives. As situations develop, reporters work to keep their audience informed, and readers
synthesize new information with what they already know about a news event.
Materials
 Graphic organizer
 Access to three global media outlets
 Follow-up questionnaire
Assignment Instructions
For this assignment, you are expected to submit two things:
1. A completed graphic organizer
2. A completed follow-up questionnaire
Step 1: Prepare for the assignment.
a) Read through the guide before you begin so you know the expectations for this assignment.
Step 2: Select three global media outlets.
a) Choose media outlets that provide daily coverage. Monthly periodicals and journals are not a good choice for this assignment, but many weekly news magazines also have websites that
provide more frequent reporting.
i. Some examples of reliable global news outlets include the New York Times, the Wall
Street Journal, the Associated Press, and Reuters.
Step 3: Begin monitoring coverage of one or two news events.
a) Use your graphic organizer to keep track of a news story as it unfolds across a period of time.
Choose a story that is likely to have continuous coverage. For example, a breaking news item will
probably have follow-up stories over the next week, while an in-depth profile of a writer or artist
will probably not be updated.
b) Consider how the story evolves depending on the handling of new events, information, and
perspectives in news articles. Consider how media outlets report the effects of the news story,
and note how the sources present opinions on the story in the form of editorials and op-ed pieces.
c) In addition to the notes you take in your graphic organizer, keep track of the titles, authors, and
URLs of articles you read as the story develops.
Step 4: After a week, review your graphic organizer to analyze the evolution of the news story.
a) Consider what trends and patterns you noticed, and what factors most influenced the coverage of
the story.
b) Using complete sentences, answer the questions on your follow-up questionnaire.
Step 5: Evaluate your assignment using this checklist.
If you can check each box below, you are ready to submit your assignment.

Step 6: Revise and submit your assignment.
a) If you were unable to check off all of the requirements on the checklist, go back and make
sure that your assignment is complete. Save your assignment before submitting it.
