The Great, the Good, and the Ugly

Great:

In “The Dishonesty of Voter ID Laws,” the New York Times’s  Editorial Board argues that some states are trying to create new, unneeded voting laws in order to prevent voter fraud that doesn’t really exist.

In The New York Times editorial “When Wealth Disappears,” the author, Stephen D. King, predicts that unless we change how our political or economic systems work, the U.S. economy will only get worse.

Good (to revise, consider the verb and the purpose):

In The New York Times’ editorial “Raffling off Assault Rifles,” The Editorial Board explains how the Republican Party of Rhode Island is trying to fundraise by auctioning off the same style of gun that was used in last December’s Newtown school massacre.

The article, “A Population Betrayed,” written by the New York Times’ Editorial Board, explains that the poorest people in the country will now be without health insurance because 26 states have chosen not to expand Medicaid.

Wrong:

The editorial I found was “Electronic Devices on Planes”, on The New York Times, by The Editorial Board. In this editorial, the board informs readers that the Federal Aviation Administration is planning on being more lenient with their rules on electronic devices, due to confusion of restrictions.

“Cheating’s Surprising Thrill” is from The New York Times and was written by Jan Hoffman. She is trying to show us that we feel good after we cheat.

In the article “Terrorism and American justice” on LA Times, by The Times editorial board expresses their opinion on how they view the U.S. is handling the capture of a suspected terrorist.

In “Electronic Devices on Planes,” The New York Times, The Editorial Board discusses the sensibility in allowing airplane passengers to utilize their electronic devices while on a flight.
