An essay that effectively compares two editorials must evaluate the argument of each piece.
<h3>Further Explanation</h3>
Editorial
An editorial is a piece of writing that is often published in a newspaper or magazine that gives an opinion on a specific topic. Often editorials are written about current debated topics such as gun control, abortion laws, and other popular topics.
Comparing Editorials
The purpose of comparing editorials is to evaluate the arguments of the authors about the common topic. By reading and evaluating the editorials, especially if they are on different sides of the issue, the audience can use the arguments presented to help formulate his/her own opinion on the topic. The essay must show how the editorials support the overall thesis statement in order to effectively compare the information presented.
Wrong Answers
Option A "assess the writing quality of each piece" is incorrect. The writing quality of the editorials is not as important as the information being presented. Poor writing quality may cause a reader to take heed and distrust the intelligence of the author, but it does not indicate that the arguments are incorrect. Option C is wrong because the essay should be focused on comparing the opinions and arguments given in the editorial and not those of other sources. The last is incorrect because A and C are incorrect.
