3 different news analysis from ny times or washington post.

i need three analysis of a political news story related to the book the promise and performance of american democracy. explaining why i chose it and if it can be used as en example somehow in the book.  

teachers instructions "In your sample analysis, first please indicate why a particular news coverage interested you. Second, what would you think of this particular political news and political affairs? Your analysis and evaluation would be the main part of this news analysis. One way to expand your analysis, as you may consider, would be to tie the news to the course content and material. Is there any specific concept discussed in the book that you find useful or applicable in analyzing this news coverage? In your opinion, could the news coverage be included in the book as an example, or counter-example, to illustrate the content?"

each one should be around 500 words. 

there is an online sample of book that leaves out pages occationally. http://books.google.com/books?id=KgZix6ekOgMC&pg=PR18&lpg=PR18&dq=the+promise+and+performance+of+american+democracy+online&source=bl&ots=Y_sbkq5nDE&sig=uZPhSY6KJMOu7XrvOpZjExfga6M&hl=en&sa=X&ei=v8oFUPeEMcml6wG-2-H8CA&ved=0CGEQ6AEwCQ#v=onepage&q&f=false
