Media and Society

This is the second of two (2) position papers based on the following scenario to be completed in this course.

Imagine that you are running for a state office (e.g., governor,  senator, or representative) and you have to prepare a position paper for  a debate on controversial issues in the news. (Select one (1) of the  topics addressed in Weeks 5-9 of this class.) You will want your  position paper to demonstrate critical thinking, sound logic, valid  claims, personal passion, and credible support that is cited correctly  because the paper will be provided to the news media before the debate  and will be scrutinized by the media and reported on regarding these  criteria. Your professor will serve as your close advisor whose job is  to review the paper and provide feedback to you on the paper’s strengths  and weaknesses. 

Write a two to three (2-3) page (700 to 1,200 words) paper in which you:

1. Introduce  your position using a thesis statement in the first paragraph,  including a quote, question, or statistic from your reliable sources and  an overview of the main points you will cover. (It’s important to grab  the audience’s interest and inform them of what the main and support  points are.

2.Provide three or four (3-4) major points to support your thesis statement. (Put each major point in a separate paragraph.)

3. Provide one (1) paragraph in which you identify and answer an expected argument against your view. 

4. Organized arguments and support for claims effectively.

5. Demonstrate  personal passion for your position and critical thinking with  persuasive language, sound logic, valid claims, and credible support for  the claims.

6. Provide two to three (2-3) credible and reliable  references (in addition to the text) about current events, which have  been published in the last five (5) years and are cited correctly in the  position paper. (Wikipedia is not an acceptable source.)

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

Be  typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with  one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA.  Check with your professor for any additional instructions.

Include  a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s  name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover  page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment  page length.
