The qeustion didn't really fit the elective, but I had lots of additional materials that related to real events/situations, so I used that.
I used Monday's Media Watch section on that ACA guy to relate it to 'the seige' and '13 days' (Cuban missile crisis '62) to relate to government distortion and misrepresentation (justified and otherwise) with the Bouganville one (Playing the Ego Card?).
I missed out on using a completely trashy article from CNN to compare to Mike Moore's factory article. It was SO completely sensationalised and I forgot it! THe first time I watched it I was in complete shock...
"CNN? Reduced to this? Darkness and Devils!" now I don't rely on CNN.
For the letter, I simply put Michael... didn't have time to go back to it.
