"All right, boys and girls. We've talked a lot about invasion of privacy and the rights of the media this term, right?" Rita said. "Well, I'm sure you've all had experiences wherever you're from with the media covering something in a manner you construe as 'unfair.'
Your project, which will be twenty-five percent of your grade and due two weeks from Friday, will be to do research on a tabloid, tabloid reporter, or some other aspect of the media that intrigues you and strikes you as 'amoral.' You'll present your findings to the class, and to me in the form of a one hundred word essay. Questions?"
