News week 3

One of the top news this week have been the visit from China's president in the US. We chose BBC News, Al Jazeera English and FoxNews. The differences between those three is not very markable. The story is very easy to find in all of the three websites, but it is easiest to find it on BBC News. In Al Jazeera English and FoxNews, the article is very long and have a lot of text, fortunately, in BBC News there is a lot of pictures and even a sideshow of facts about the trade between China and the US. In all of the three articles, they focus on the sentence "a lot still needs to be done".  The most important news is in the top of the article. BBC and Fox have a kind of conclusion at the bottom, but Al Jazeera have not. BBC even have quotes that catch our attention. Al Jazeera and FoxNews have both a picture of first lady Michelle Obama, Prestident Hu and President Obama in the top, but BBC have a picture on the right side further down. We preferred the article to BBC News because of the sideshow, the way the article was present and because it was easy to read. 

BBC News:
China's Hu says "a lot to be down" on human rights


Al Jazeera English:
China's Hu admits rights failings



FoxNews:
Hu Concedes China Needs to do "a lot" on rights
