1. Will the source be useful to your project? Why or why not?
This source will not be useful to my project just because it is a recent event that has not been fully investigated. New information to what has happened with the Boston Marathon bombing comes about every day it seems. Whether it was how the bombing actually happened, figuring out who the suspects are, to capturing the suspects, I can always open up my computer to finding out more information on this event. It is a tragic event that needs to be read up on and researched, and that is why I chose this for my project.
2. What parts of the article were helpful or not helpful? Why?
Fox News posted this article and most of it was very helpful. Fox News stated “Now that police have secured the second of two suspects in Monday's Boston Marathon bombing -- who as of Saturday night lay hospitalized in serious condition under heavy guard and apparently in no shape to be interrogated -- the long and meticulous process of examining motives, methods and possible links begins” (Griffin, 2013). They let us know what happened up to the capturing of the suspect. When the suspect hid in a boat on a man’s property and police got there, there was a shootout that led to his capture. Also a couple of police officers died or were injured in trying to capture him.
3. Is the source reputable and/or reliable? Why or why not?
The source that I have chosen is reputable more so that reliable. It is reputable because it is a popular team Fox News. Millions of TV watchers tune in to all kinds of news broadcasts and this is one of the most viewed. They have a lot of reporters go out and
