More Problems Occurring In Israel

            
             November 9, 2002 started out as an ordinary day in Kibbutz Metzer, Israel. That was true until a mad man went on a shooting spree. He killed five people including a mother and her two young sons. This story was reported in both the Washington Post and their local newspaper the Jerusalem Post. In every news story the writer uses the technique of slanting and charged language. These techniques are used to persuade the reader to view the issue in the way the writer sees it. Both articles that I have found have the many things that are alike, but they have different slants to them.
             The Jerusalem Post and the Washington Post stated who all was killed, and what each person was doing when they were killed. Both articles stated the fact that the mother was on the phone with her ex-husband when she and her sons were murdered. Also both stressed the fact that everyone in that community has always had good ties with their Arab neighbors inside of outside of their community. Even though both articles state many of the same facts they do this in different ways.
             To start off the title of the Jerusalem Post is "Israel vows retaliation for deaths of five in kibbutz carnage". The title comes off as being vengeful. I feel that by this title that the people of this community want to seek revenge on the people who did this horrible act of hatred. In the body of the article I felt as if the writer wanted the reader to know just the bare facts about the events that occurred. For example the article states the facts about each person and how they were killed. In the article it told you how the mother was reading her sons a bed time story when he came in the room and shot all three of them to death ("Israel Vows"). It goes into no great detail about how he got in the house and the events that occurred when he was in there. The Jerusalem Post made the reader feel emotionally evolved by having the picture of the two boys.
