    Although I find some of the article to be kind of boring and undermining of the interest of the article, I think that the takeaway point is very interesting and thought-provoking and really brings together people's ideas about this topic. I think that the strong point of the article is to show how even though teenagers and schoolkids complain about the amount of homework we have, it is not because we are lazy but instead because we really are under a lot of my stress. If this article would want to be improved, the author should make the dated day less boring and long and more condensed and short to keep the reader interested and attentive.

    It's absolutely heartbreaking to see how people are being mistreated even when the government says that they will take them and help them get better. It really shows the low quality and waste of energy and time that could be used actually helping people with a mental disorder but instead wasted by doing counterproductive, alarming acts like this. It's shocking and appalling that even though the government says that they will protect all the rights of the citizens, they are the ones that are hurting ones with mental illnesses. Mental asylums should be a place where people can get better, not worse.

    This article really showcased some good points from both sides of the differing opinions about impartiality in journalism in today. While Keller and Greenwald both had strong arguments and fought their side passionately, I personally agree with Greenwald and think that no matter how hard a journalist may try, it is just human nature that people are always slightly biased toward one side over the other. However, in spite of Greenwald's opinion, journalists should still strive to make an article as impartial and unbiased as possible in order for other people to base their own decision off of it. Even though it may be difficult to keep your point of view out of your writing 100% of the time, without impartial journalism we would be living in a world dominated by opinions over facts.
