In this quote, it gives national a bit of context by comparing Iowa to other states in the US, which helps provide a larger picture of what is going on nationally and how this is a bigger problem than just Iowa. It also shows framing because it uses info from an LGBTQ+ group, which influences how the issue is explained. The quote draws a picture of the states having these laws put in place is the norm but lacks more explanation of these differences of why some do have these laws and why others don't.

When statistics or articles , its to show the news value of evidence, but ti feel like the article doesn’t explain what the complaints were about or how many were confirmed, which leaves out important context. This is an example of how data can be used to make an issue seem big or urgent and leaves the audience up to interpretation of what these said complaints were without fully explaining what it means.

when the quote says "Iowa was the first", it implies/ stresses the news value by explaining how Iowa is the first state to remove gender-identity protections, which makes the change seem more dramatic and significant. It also shows framing because it uses information from an LGBTQ+ think tank, which shapes how readers understand the action as a rollback of rights.

I feel like quote connects Iowa’s law to a bigger a national conversation and shows how news stories build a larger narrative instead of treating events as just one incident. I feel like it also shows framing because when the article says a specific word, from the Supreme Court decision, a “setback,” it signals the article’s perspective. This can often make the audience read this as a issue that is important.

I feel like this statement by the governor of the state, it shows her true values when it comes to this "issue" (bias) and provides a perspective from the far right. This language shows a non neutral language for everyone and can only appeal to one narrative of the story.

I believe this headline alone sparks a conflict with civil rights protections being a fight that has been going on for decades and to see a reversal in this work could cause huge controversy. Also, it touches on how this is something bigger than just this one state but contributes to a larger narrative of states rolling back on LGBTQ+ rights.

I think this is important that it is pointed out that EVERY citizens wasn't involved in this poll but rather a sample of citizens and this could mean that polls are constructed using certain methods, and the choices made in sampling and weighting affect the final results.

When it comes to the SNAP benefits,it seems like the people think that the democratic party would handle this issue better, and in my opinion, I agree since looking at how the administration is working right now (republican) during this shutdown isn't benefiting anyone and hurting millions of citizens. So it's understandable why the majority of the poll says this. Even with independent/ third party voters even trust the left side more by a good number, I feel that shows a lot.

I thought this was important to spot out because of how divided our country is and how much discourse democrats and republicans have but in this time of the government shutdown, both parties have almost the same view on this topic and how everyone should still get the benefits needed to get through these food insecure times.

This metaphor means when you think of a rainy day, you compare it to a bad day ( in my opinion). It implies that rather than being put on by economic or political shortcomings, misery is cyclical and natural, like weather cycles ( meaning it will be over soon, it will pass)

The headline gives a sense of people to be scared about the recent government shutdown causing food assistance that people need to be cut (a reason to be fearful). The phrase positions families as defensive or under attack, highlighting a lack of security.

this is an opinion since this sentence is showing a subjective statement by a viewer of the show, making it a difference from "good" and "bad", good and bad depending on someones own opinion of what they believe is good or bad. Someone might have liked her wings the way they were but this viewer wanted her wings to be bigger (an subjective pinion)

I felt like this is something that we talked about in class that this is a easy and identifiable opinion since this "rumor" isn't proven yet
