Bias article about the case, favoring Zimmerman. Allows him to plea his case and apologize for what happened.

Goes well with the "What if George Zimmerman Were Black?" article

This is a very biased article from the conservative side of the case.

This is not so much an article, but it gives you some different opinions and stories that I thought were interesting.

I do think this article has bias. It is a fairly conservative publication gloating about the witness statement and shaming other usually considered credible publications for how they have covered the statement. I find it interesting.

This is an excellent article with numerous links to other articles that trace the evolution of the Martin/Zimmerman case. It notes too that the Trayvon Martin Memorial has been removed. I find that strange. It has been preserved, but why remove it? This is a great article for up-to-date information and case development.

I like this article because of the bias opinions and the conspiracy theories is poses.

I found this article interesting because it can go both ways. The defense can be accused of desperately digging for "dirt" on Trayvon or the defense could have proved that Trayvon wasn't well behaved.

http://oneutah.org/barack-obama/imagine-if-the-tea-party-was-black-tim-wise/ I don't know if this link will work in this format, but it is a correlary article titled "What if the Tea Party was Black" by Tim Wise and is fascinating. I think it is a great read. At least you can cut and paste it into your browser. These sort of hypothoses are really interesting.

This is a pretty interesting decision. Why what Martin's reacords were prior to the incident were seems irrelevant. Grades, who he was on the phone with, who he talked to? Maybe this establishes prior creditbility? Situated ethos? Who thinks this is a viable defense for Zimmerman?

When we study visual rhetoric this will be a great story to come back to. A great look into how we can be manipulated by imagery.

An article about the background of Trayvon as a person.

SO much of what we are seeing in the news feeds today is the information concerning George Zimmerman. I am still conflicted as to what actually happened that night and why. But I feel like the tide has changed/shifted and the voices we first heard that supported Trayvon Martin are getting lost now as so many speak up and defend Zimmerman's right to self defence (which may be valid); however, hearing from his parents reminds us that a young boy was shot that night and he cannot speak for himself as Zimmerman can.

I thought this article was interesting because it shows how this is not a clear cut case. There are many different stories, and this article looks at most of them.

Hi, This just puts us in the search page of Lexis/Nexis. What you need to do is search for the story out in Google and post the actual link to it from there. Thanks! We'd really like to read this!
