Newspaper diaspora paragraph exemplar
Human tragedy at an unprecedented level. The current diaspora is understood by people based on where they get their information. The New York Times is the 'paper of record' in the United States.The New York times is empathetic towards the victims of this human tragedy. The paper uses words and phrases such as horror, victim and gaping wound to describe the people and the situation the are escaping. These words are all negative towards the situation in their homelands; the places they are forced to leave for the safety of themselves and their families. They make the reader sympathetic towards the people/victims, and empathetic about their situation. The New York Times does this because it and its audience are well educated, and care about the suffering of others. They are also from a place where immigration is understood and valued.
