critique

The blog "Government by Asia", critics an article about college age students watching the "Daily Show". The writer portrays the article as being against popular shows like "The Daily Show" that give impressionable college age viewers cynical and bias opinions. However, the blog does present  fact that combats its view on the issue. The editorial quotes a fact about the average "Daily Show" viewer being more informed about current events than people that just watch regular news shows. To me this fact holds higher credibility than what the professor quoted in the article. In order to convince your reader, even in an editorial, one must display information from the article that adds to your point, rather than taking away from it.
