Identify the type of narration used in the
excerpt.
The story is told in the third person omniscient point of view. It is a
type of narration where the narrator plays god and knows the internal feelings
and thoughts of the character. In addition, it allows the reader to know the
thoughts and feelings of the character too.
Which words in the excerpt indicate the type of
narration?
Using the 3rd person pronouns such as “she,” “he,” “himself,” “her,”
and related pronouns show the point of view of the narration; while the words “knew,”
“felt,” “wondered” and words that show the inner thoughts and feelings of the
character.
What is the effect of this point of view on the
reader’s interpretation of the information presented?
The
reader is able to make judgements and understand why the main character is
behaving that way and the reason behind how the other characters react and
respond to the situation. Interpretation of the story becomes more personal and
engaging.

Answer:
actual malice, because Joan is a limited-purpose public figure as she voluntarily thrust herself into a public controversy
Explanation:
In law, actual malice is simply a requirement that is imposed on a particular person who claims her image is being tarnished by someone when filing a lawsuit for slander or libel. This will be found in a case where the defendant actually publishes a false statement (libel) or communicates it (slander), knowing fully well that the information is false and disregard for what such information can cause. Joan is actually a limited-purpose figure and decided to go public by making efforts to get her voice out there in a quest to build more bike lanes.
