Reading Log #1

In the Oregonian, on January 12, 2007 on the front page, they printed an article called "Man Says Firefighters beat him." I think this story is newsworthy because it has impact. It is important for citizens to know if firefighters and policeman are abusing there power. This article also contains the quality of conflict because there is a different account of what is happening by the firfighters and the man attacked. It is also a timely article since the event happened very recently. This is an article that deserves to be on the front page.
