The background!! Hope this helped!!!
:]
When the U.S. was just starting to form a government, they wanted to make sure power was equally distributed; make sure that power wasn’t just given to a handful of people. A democracy is power given equally and letting the citizens decide the role and impact of the government. The Founding Fathers wanted equality for everyone (everyone truly meaning all white men). At this time women and slaves still didn’t have political rights which is hypocritical to the meaning of democracy. When they said “Equality for all” they really meant “Equality for all white men.” That is the reason why the democracy preached by the U.S. was hypocritical.
Answer:
The author's purpose for including Ecker's study was to support his claim that headlines matter and change the perspective of readers.
Explanation:
"How Headlines Change The Way We Think" is an article written by Maria Konnikova. The article talks about how headlines change the perspective of readers.
In this article, the author includes Ullrich Ecker's study. As per the study, Ecker suggests that a slight change in the words in headlines does make a difference in the reader's perspective. In his studies, the factual article (which was misleading), hurt the reader's ability to recall detail's from the article.
Therefore, the purpose was to support the author's claim, with facts, that how headlines change the reader's perspective.
I bbelive this is analogical writing.
