...disappointment to many special water landmarks, one including the San Joaquin River. In the article, “ River Restoration Projects Offers a Sprinkling of Hope”, the author Daniel Weintraub explains why bringing back the San Joaquin River would be a good idea. On the other hand, author Bill McEwen wrote an article called the Fresno Bee claiming the project was a waste of time and money, all in all, declared it was not a good idea. I chose this article because i believe that the River Rights Project would help enable farms along the river, being said that money is set aside for this event to take place. Daniel Weintraub’s achievements, credentials, and experience manifest him to be more educated, as well as his...

...The name of the topic is “River Rights”.The name of the article I have chosen is “River Plan Too Fishy for my Taste Buds”.The author I have chosen is Bill McEwen.The reason I have choosen this article is because the author uses political and economic facts to support his opinion,which is very convincing.Bill McEwen is a 35 year veteran journalist and the opinion page editor of the Fresno Bee,which makes me believe that McEwen is the proven/better expert.The article was published in the Fresno Bee in Fresno,California.The Fresno Bee is run by The McClatchy Company and serves its news to over 500,000 people.I do not agree with the river project because I believe its a waste of money.The U.S. still has its Alaska salmon source.

...Within the article, “River Plan: Too Fishy for my Taste Buds”, its author Bill McEwen writes about the plan to restore the San Joaquin River, and about the details that seem to create more negative effects than positive effects. This author appears to be more credible, as he gives a wider view of the situation than merely who approves of the idea. He gives details of how the restoration idea would ruin what little river remains, and become a drowning waste of money. McEwen worked with the Fresno Bee for over 35 years, writing multiple articles and having a heavy understanding of politics that other writers do not. The Fresno Bee pulls in an average of 264,603 daily readers, and publishing occurs in the California city of Fresno. Fresno itself...

...In class we read two articles about the San Joaquin River Restoration Project , a project that will cost the federal and state governments millions if not billions of dollars to complete and to put salmon back into the river.One written by Bill McEwen in the Fresno Bee Newspaper called “River Plan Too Fishy for my Taste Buds” caught my attention the most. The way that the author brought up every aspect to go against it and had strong enough evidence to support his reasoning on the restoration being a waste of money because studies show that it will be unsuccessful (logos), as well as having many farmers and people losing water for this project (pathos)and since institution say that success is impossible( ethos) it’s most likely a be a mistake...

...California should not spend the money for the San Joaquin Restoration Project. Bill McEwen’s article, River Plan Too Fishy for my Taste Buds, clearly states his opinion on the controversial topic of the San Joaquin Restoration Project. The newspaper, Fresno Bee, published this article on March 26 in 2009 in Fresno, California when congress officially approved of the San Joaquin project. Due to the fact that farms surround Fresno, the people who live there consist mostly of farmers, and the majority of them do not agree with the river project. Bill McEwen, a local Fresno, proves as a credible source because he worked as a writer at The Fresno Bee for 35 years. I believe the river restoration project might head towards a disadvantageous direction...
