Article Evaluation
"Public Opinion on North Korea"

Within this article, the content seems to be, for the most part, in line with the stated topic. Polls are included at the end of the article, all being taken from the Washington Post. The Washington Post seems to be the only source for information, and this does call for some worry, as the organization has been known for being left-leaning. The poll solely talks about how Trump has been handling his job as president, and the way in which the questions were posed can also be seen as slightly biased. In a way the questions seem to be talking down on Trump's handling of his occupation. Some of the questions (such as if North Korea serves as a major threat) could be broken up into two questions, as to avoid swaying the way the participant in voting one way or another. The references, although they can be seen as biased, seem to check out in being reliable. The sources are mostly from 2016 on, making them time relevant. The information provided is consistent with what we have viewed in class. Participants wish to avoid war with North Korea, only striking if they strike first. All in all, the article could have more encompassing viewpoints, but it gets the information across.
