Chat With Nat-How Can We Use Our Time Better?-
1. Natalie Aman wrote this story.
2 This story is about how Natalie thinks that people shouldn't wipe their slate clean when the new year starts but that you should still set new goals and not forget about the past.
3. "Now I am a firm believer in goal setting. I think that you can honestly achieve anything if you are willing to set aside your personal agenda to work towards that goal. But I also believe that there is a difference between setting a goal and wiping your slate clean at the turn of a calendar."
4. This story does address the other side of the argument because it talks about how she understands that people want to set new goals but she contradicts that statement with talking about how people shouldn't have to start clean every year.
5. I do not think that the opinion is "wishy-washy" because even though she states the other side of the argument, she still stays strong with her opinion.
6. There are no quotes in this story.
7. This story is written in first person.

4. This story does not address the other side of the argument.
5. Katie's opinion was not "wishy-washy" because she repeatedly stated what she thought should and should not be brought into 2018.

Russia Banned from Winter Olympics-
1. Sumin Kim wrote this story.
2. This story is about how Russia was banned from the Winter Olympics.
3. "In my opinion, IOC finally made the right decision after letting Russia get away with cheating for a long time. The decision should have been made earlier, but I'm glad they finally decided to ban them."
4. This story does not address the other side of the argument.
5. I don't think that his opinion is "wishy-washy" because he repeatedly restates his opinion and does not address why he might be wrong.

A: A major difference between a hard news story and an opinion piece is that an opinion piece is written in first person and a hard news story is written as facts only. Another difference is that in a hard news story, there are always quotes from people directly involved with the news, but in opinion pieces, there are no quotes. Lastly, hard news stories never have opinions in them unless there is a quote where someone gives their opinion, but the written never states an opinion. Obviously, in an opinion piece, the writers opinion is stated.
B: There might not be many photos on these pages because a lot of the stories are about lots of different little topics instead of one main topic and it would be hard to add in that many photos.
C: A good topic to write an opinion piece on is Donald Trump because people tend to have strong feelings about him. Another topic could be something about Bowie like what someone thinks of something like dress code. Lastly, a good topic to write about could be about the best places to go in Austin for food, entertainment, and other things.
