Answer:

Neil Postman's essay "The News" central idea is to question how real the television medium is.

Explanation:

Neil Postman is an author, essayist and a communications theorist. In his essay "The News', he questions the realism of the television media in their delivering of news or information. According to him, there is a certain phoniness in the whole production of the news. The agencies choose only those news or information that will garner more audience views. The more dramatized ones are given more priority, irrespective of the gravity or importance of the situation. Their only concern is to get as many viewers as possible to generate their profit and maintain their status quo.

Find the error with subject-verb agreement. Select the incorrect verb and type it correctly. The Universal Declaration of Human
slava [35]

Answer:

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights states that everybody in the world has certain fundamental rights such as freedom of expression, equal protection under law, and equal pay for equal work.

Explanation:

In the passage "everybody in the world have certain fundamental rights," we have a subject-verb agreement problem. <u>The subject of this clause is "everybody". Even though the word "everybody" conveys the idea of there being several people included, the word itself is singular. Therefore, the verb referring to it should also be in its singular form. That is why the use of "have" is incorrect. In its place, we should use "has", the simple present third-person form of the verb. Thus, the correct clause would be "everybody int he world has certain fundamental rights."</u>

Answer:

Most often, stories start with an “inciting incident”. This is where you both introduce your lead character and put them in a situation that pulls them out of their comfort zone. Act 2: The confrontation. If you plot your story well, the middle part shouldn't be too difficult.
