News framing describes the way an editor uses layout design, placement and headlines to sensationalize, downplay, exaggerate or convey importance.  When we recognize news framing, we understand that:
 
  a. The news that makes front- page headlines is always the most newsworthy
  item
  b. A small one-column article appears at the bottom of page 8 reports the
  discovery that the heart of a fetus can be damaged when pregnant woman
  take a popular antidepressant. This finding must not be very significant.
  c. A newspaper editor would never sensationalize in order to sell papers.
  d. An awareness of news framing can help us detach from its influence and
  become better critical readers.

Question 2

Skilled critical readers may skim an article first but always look for the source of this information in order to consider its content in the context of its viewpoint. This is mainly because
 
  a. Critical readers don't believe anything they read. b. Critical readers know that everything is subjective.
  c. Critical readers are snobbish.
  d. Critical readers know that all information is framed and filtered by a particular
  perspective or viewpoint.
