The article "Dangerous Uncertainties" posted on La Opinion, juxtaposes the situation in Pakistan after the murder of Benazir Bhutto. Bhutto was a strong polical leader who was running for the presidency of her home country Pakistan, and was hoping to bring democracy to the country. Even after being threatened several times before, and after being in exile in London, she was willing to risk her life to seek a better government for her people. Unfortunately, Bhutto's enemies got what they wanted, her death, as they did with Bhutto's father and two brothers in past elections. Eventhough current president, Pervez Musharraf has also been threatened, his government is being affected. "Bhutto’s assassination has brought dangerous uncertainties" for Pakistan and the world.
Tone Condemning, Concerned
App. Question How chaotic can this situation become, and how does it affect the U.S. government and citizens?

"We Want the Awards" Really? Truly? No!
-Nikki Finke

The article "We Want the Awards" Really? Truly? No! by Nikke Finke, illustrates the possibility that certain programming -award shows- will no longer be aired. The AMPTP has been blamed for such "tragedies," that will affect the Hollywood environment. Yet, ratings have confirmed the opposite, since over the years the popularity of award shows has decreased. People no longer seem to care about what actors win an award, or movie, it is no longer taken in consideration. This also includes future movies, TV programming, etc., as well as other industries the rely on such type if events. Finke juxtaposes that if the AMPTP "began real negotiations," then maybe there would be less commotion on the subject, and everyone will be happy.
Tone Sarcastic, Bantering
App. Ques. How can events such as awards, affect our lifestyles, or the city's industries overall?
