assigned literature for this week, I noticed that it controlled me—my soul sometimes evoked a sense of pride, waves of applause, but most of all, anger.

I chose to do my analysis on an article from US Weekly. It is multimedia because it contains words and pictures.

I was drawn to an article about Nick Viall from The Bachelor because it was the cover story and included a lot of pictures and interesting headlines. Pictures of Nick, the individual contestants mentioned, and a group shot of him with all of this girls are on this
