Monday: The story that really interested me in today's paper was the story regarding the tanker explosion in Kenya. The image of the children with such traumatic wounds were really moving and while it's not a story that will go down in the history books, it certainly has immediate relevance for the victims involved in the explosion.
Tuesday: Right on the front page was the story of President Obama and the democrats reaching an agreement with the republicans on the stimulus plan. Not only is this important to the United States to help recharge the economy, it also is important to me for I am soon to be going out into the field looking for work.
Wednesday: The big news today in my book was the withdraw of Daschle's bid from the cabinet. The even bigger news was that President Obama stepped out and said that he made a mistake or "screwed up" as he put it, but wanted to move on. I found it interesting that our President was taking the blame for something and openly admitting it was his fault. I think it was a mature step to take and a beneficial one in order for citizens to trust their government.
Thursday: Ending out the week was the story about the Digital Pirates winning against Hollywood by illegally putting movies up on the internet. This was really big back when I was in High School and it seems to still be going strong today. I personally feel that movies are heading in this direction anyway, but until it's made legal, it's a hot topic in the entertainment department.
