A Brief Comparison of COVID-19 and Spanish Flu News' Composition and Purpose
What sort of object is this: text story, photograph, video, audio interview, screenshot, drawing, meme, etc.?
An essay I wrote for class
Tell us a story; share your experience. Describe what the object or story you've uploaded says about the pandemic, and/or why what you've submitted is important to you.
While it does not delve into my personal life and experiences, it does compare two points in time and how specifically the news has approached two flu pandemics. As expected, there are some major similarities. The essay specifically analyzes the structure for a short 1918 news article written about the Spanish flu.
Who originally created this object? (If you created this object, such as photo, then put "self" here.)
