1. On Friday we discussed different sources of news and what makes them different. We also learned about topic development.
2. One of the most important parts of the discussion to me was how different news agencies report stories differently based on political backround. It is something i hadn't thought about very much before.
3. I will consider my sources for concrete details a lot more closely now before choosing them.
4. It can be hard to determine the orientation of news sources without any outside assistance. They want to appeal to as wide of an audience as possible and this is harder to achieve the more biased they are.
5. Topic development can be difficult but is an important necessity of any "blank page" paper.

You write: "It can be hard to determine the orientation of news sources without any outside assistance." To what outside assistance would you turn to evaluate news sources?
Topic development is difficult, but it will get easier with practice.
