Weekly Blog 11/17

This is an article about the feud between the NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and Dallas Cowboys  Owner, Jerry Jones. The heated debate between the suspension of Ezekiel Elliot has drawn the relationship into jeopardy.

What the reporter did well was tell a story from the very beginning to end and it provides multiple paragraphs of the different angles from Goodell, Jones, and other executives involved. They also explained how Jones was furious that Goodell suspended Elliot for no real reason, as there was no proof for his suspension.

What the reporter needs to work on is not end the post on a cliff-hanger, as it was cut off from potentially expanding the story. A conclusion sentence would have been very important to know when he article is finished, opposed to interrupting the passage.

How I will implement this in my work is to do more research and get actual facts to put in the articles or writing that I do, because many people in the media make the mistake of not communicating with sources to get the correct information.
