REMEMBER to find a "cu
ent" event, meaning one that was published/posted/etc. within the past month if possible, or within the past 3 months at the oldest. And remember to read critique...you don't have to agree with everything the authors says. Try to separate out the facts from the author's opinion and possible agenda considering the organization they represent.
