an issue related to something that interest you. Find an editorial from a major newspaper or magazine. Make
sure that it is a fairly long editorial. Isolate the major premises of the author’s argument. Assess the quality of
the premises. Is there suppressed evidence? Are the premises true? Do the premises logically lead to the
editorial’s conclusion? How does the author use language to persuade or mislead the reader? You must
include the editorial with your paper
