Essay Structure

B.The body paragraphs of your essay should break down your discussion into a sequence of logical paragraphs that explain and provide examples and explanations for your main thesis idea. Each paragraph should have a main point that ties back to the thesis about how you see bias in the text with specific examples to support your ideas. MLA Style signal phrases and in-text citations should be used to document cited examples of textual evidence.
C.The conclusion paragraph of your essay should wrap up the thesis and body discussion with a summary of the main points, and a closing statement about how/why this type of enhanced understanding of bias impacts your understanding of the way news is presented online.
