Which article are you evaluating?
Media studies

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because it is related to the subject that I am currently studying as well as includes information about a large interest of mine. My initial impression of the article was that it has a very strong description of media studies in places all over the globe not just the United States. I think that the article could have been somewhat more thorough in describing the origin of media studies.

Evaluate the article
The article has a strong introductory section that clearly describes the topic of the article. However, there is a weak description of what the following sections will include. The content of the article was useful and relevant to media studies and I feel that it gave a great wholistic view of the topic as a whole. I do feel like there could have been more content in the origin section. The article is very neutral, given that it is more purely factual and history. The sources are extensive, but I feel that there could have been more citations and quotes within the article. The images match the article well and were a great visual aid. Overall, I would say this is a good article that gives a global background of media studies but lacks sharp focus on certain important areas.
