My 2 Styles

1-Exemplification. My idea for my paper is a little abstract, because you can't really measure the effect in dollars, lives, years, etc. So I'm thinking about this one.

2-Description-I like how you take all of the context of what you are talking about and kind of run with it feel of this one. And how you take all the little facts of the journalistic approach and flush them out into ideas.
