Blog Assignment #2 Freedom of speech

Recently, an American political commentator, Ann Coulter, has caused considerable controversy in Canada. She has many Canadians debating how far freedom of speech goes. Do some research about Ann Coulter. What is her backgound? What has she said that is so controversial?

Write a magazine article that explains who she is and what she has said that is so controversial. In your article make sure you mention what is the law surrounding free speech and, of course, your opinion on the matter. When expressing your opinion, third person point of view is always more forceful. Three paragraphs at minimum.


An easy way to organize your thoughts would be to provide background on Coulter in the first paragraph, the laws of free speech in the second paragraph, and your thoughts on the subject in the third paragraph. Make sure your introduction is dynamic and, as always, entertain me while you enlighten me.

Blog assignment #1 Changing History

High level responses will use formal language and proper grammar and punctuation. Make sure you include plenty of detail - this should be a lengthy paragraph.

Most importantly, keep it out of my "Boring Bin." Either dazzle me with your description, entertain me with your humor and creativity, or impress me with profound, thought provoking, and mature ideas.
