Learning Journal #4

In class yesterday we covered more recent Tongan history, discussing current events and government reform. It was interesting to read articles from different sources and notice how the view point of the author can greatly determine the opinion of the reader. 4 separate articles describing the same event can lead to drastically different outcomes. What are the authors motivated by? Is it impossible to write without bias?

I want to research and write without my opinion interfering. I am so passionate about my project and I really hope to find something new and amazing, but if I expect to come to a certain conclusion my research will be in vain. In order to find any real answers I need to be open and indifferent.
