Writing Collective: How To Write A News Story

Denial of the Armenian Genocide in Political Context: Howard Zinn and Ward Churchill
Current rating: 0
14 May 2005
The Daily Illini has in the past two weeks published four letters denying the Armenian genocide during World War I, which were in response to a news story covering the 90th anniversary of the genocide. They have also published three letters in protest of this denial. To place this denial in further context, I am posting an article by Howard Zinn and an excerpt from an article by Ward Churchill, as well as all of the materials from the DI.

(For previous background and context, see http://www.ucimc.org/newswire/display/34209/index.php).
