Sample of Humor

I found a political cartoon that is poking fun at the BCS. In it, a man makes a long statement of how difficult and uncompromising an entity is, and a couple of people overhear this statement; one thinks he is talking about the current situation in the Middle East, only to find out by the other person that the statement is concerning the BCS.

It is extremely humorous to one that is familiar with the BCS system, and the humor stems from the criticisms of the the current post season system in college football. Also, for a fan it is somewhat accurate to make this statement because at times, the BCS can be as confusing and difficult as the escalating situation in the Middle East.

Of course, in the level of importance and seriousness is nowhere near that of the Middle East, but it is still funny to make that comparison.

Two Body Sections

I think my approach should be effective. I plan on starting with the most local medium, and then proceeding with the more national mediums. In writing my first two body sections, I have found some similarities, but there have also been clear differences in regard to amount of devotion and coverage to the topic: TCU football recruiting.

I think the setup I am going with will allow for some great elaboration and it will be easy to compare and contrast the different sources. This is the approach I plan on taking for the whole paper, and I started with the first two body sections. I kind of set the stage, explain what each one does/offers as a source, then when all are mentioned, I can go back and forth, comparing and contrasting similarities and differences in my four sources.

This will also allow to see how truly effective each source is, and it will allow for me to analyze the overall exposure TCU received and how that has helped/hurt the program.
