Analysis: This article was written by 3 authors, Madeline Buckley, Donna Vickroy and Kayli Plotner, for such a sort article it sure needed lots of people. It was also written on January 21, today, so the information shown is very up-to-date. I did not know about this shooting because it's very minor and happened in Chicago. I can connect this shooting to the Haymarket square bombing, as no true culprit was deducted. It has a negative influence on the audience, because the article recalls people's accounts of horrifying experiences. This article was written, because a lot of people were affected by this shooting, 1 man is dead, and the shooter has yet to be found. This article is important, because the gunman has yet to be revealed.

  1. It’s a shame that tragic events such as this go unnoticed at large by the general population because the magnitude of it did not exceed that needed for full, undivided attention. I liked your connection between this and the Haymarket Square Riot.
