Spriggs analysis
1. The
Sprigg’s essay is Sprigg’s forming and sharing her opinion on local
grown organic produce. Her opinion was expressed that the advantages of
locally owned farms outweigh the disadvantages. She then presented very
picky counterarguments that counter argued her point so her position
looked stronger.
2. The
second article we analyzed was about the legalization of marijuana in
Colorado. The article was more pro legalization of marijuana because the
data supports that highway fatalities have decreased since the
legalization of marijuana. Some counterarguments that they made were
that the anti-pot group, SAM pointed out that even before the first
legal pot store opened in Washington State, the number of driver in that
state testing positive for pot jumped by one-third.
3. The
last article we analyzed was the unrealistic nature of Photoshop and
people to what we accept as “standard”. It was mainly against it due to
the number of facts represented in the article. For example, from the
1990’s to now, due to photo shopping there has been an 119% increase in
eating disorders for children 12 years and younger.
4. The
Sprigg’s essay and our analyzed articles differentiate due to lack of
counterarguments in the positive and/or negative positions. The articles
are more statistical-based, rather than the Sprigg’s essay which is
more observational. However, the Sprigg’s essay and the analyzed
articles are all similar in the way that they all have a very strong
stance and position on their topic.
