Author: Pamela Dockins
Publication: VOA(An international publication)
Audience: International audience. People who care about Abola.
Stance: Only show others' opinoin (Maybe a little agree). Careful.
Cite 1: the State Department says
Cite 2: Jen Psaki said
Cite 3: being questioned by Mark Krikorian
Cite 4: has raised concerns
Cite 5: however
Cite 1- 4 only show others opinion, and cite 5 may show writer's focus.
All of article objective except "however".
Objective and no writer's opinion but it is also its weakness.
Author: Georges Benjamin
Publication: US News(A national publication)
Audience:National audience. People who care about Abola.
Stance: Opposed.
Cite 1: Infectious disease does not respect geographical borders.
Cite 2: What I saw, in fact, was a responsive, competent public health approach at work.
Cite 3: Preventing travel from affected countries is an inadequate measure.
Cite 4: We have many significant biological threats, and they are all managed best
through proven public health measures.
Cite 5: Yes, we should screen travelers, but restricting travel is not the solution. A
focused, robust and science-based public health response is.
From cite 1, 3& 5, we learn that prevent travel is not a good, and health measures are
good(Cite 2& 4). What we should need is a focused, robust and science-based public
health response(Cite 5).
Strong point: He use some historical information and experience to support his idea.
No weakness at present.
