TOPIC: SIMONE BILES’ WITHDRAWAL FROM THE OLYMPICS
Do a compare-and-contrast case study. It will require you to view your topic from three
different angles: locally, nationally, and globally. Your case study should be written in
APA style, have 800 words, and compare and contrast your topic with how it was
portrayed from a local, national, and global standpoint.
JUST TO CLARIFY: For this assignment, the local news is where the event took place.
For example, the local news coverage for the Columbine school shooting that occurred
in 1999 will be Columbine, CO. National news for the event can be any other news
coverage that covered the event in the USA including Miami, and the global news will
be any country outside of the USA regardless of the native language of the country that
covered the event, including Canada, UK, Spain, etc.
