It’s Not True Because “You’ve Heard”
Don’t even ASK what brought my little storm of writing on because I’ll explode into a million pieces and then catch you on fire.
The internet is a huge resource, literally. Kids use it for homework help. People show off graphics, make personal blogs, research, and create websites for people’s own uses.
But, what have your parents told you? “Just because Sally SAYS your hair is ugly doesn’t mean that it is!” And that’s true with the internet. If your best friend says that you can’t write worth a shit doesn’t mean that you can’t write worth a shit! (if you do then work on it! :))
And, even more so, if you find an article that says “Mr. Geeeo of oBlahBlah Inc is a mass murder BECAUSE I HEARD IT ON THE INTERNET!” then you really ought to think Gee! Where’s the proof of that? The internet? Who said it? One person? One religion? Where’s the proof behind it?
All these articles I’ve read are not full. They aren’t giving proof and calling it an argument.
So…
I’ve decided to make a contest.
Give me an article, preferably involving your views on the war-even more credit IF it’s a response to this report. I want evidence to back up your opinions (and I don’t want “I HEARD,” I want an actual piece of evidence such a picture, video, or linked quote), I want quotes (please give sources) and I certainly want it to be good.
I’ll post more info on the Contests Page. Email entries to me at jeansenglish@yahoo.com
Please me, please.
