1. What is the thrust of their concern?

Essay Format:
Do not respond separately to each individual component listed above. Instead, develop a coherent, structured essay. So, adhere to the basics of standard essay format, with an introduction, body and conclusion. Assume I know nothing about which you are writing, so be thorough. Apply relevant terminology and provide all necessary definitions. Use your own words wherever possible; do not merely copy material from the textbook or lecture slides, as this would be considered plagiarism.
Your work must be typewritten with 1-inch margins, 12-point Times New Roman font, double-spaced with in-text citations, and a Works Cited page, which will be page 3 of your submission.
Citing Sources:
The official citation style for this section of MCJ 1 is MLA. You may NOT use any other academic writing style, even if you are proficient in another. You must cite your sources in MLA and maintain consistency throughout.
You MUST reference the Module 2 lecture OR Baran, Chapter 2. You MUST also reference at least two additional sources (assigned videos in Module 2 OR optional book or article by McChesney) LINKS LISTED BELOW.
Papers that do not include in-text citations AND a Works Cited page will automatically receive an “F” grade for the assignment. Papers that do not include in-text citations OR a Works Cited page will automatically receive a “C” grade for the assignment before other criteria are considered.
