Write an essay (5-6 pages) comparing the two news stories from a sociological perspective, including:
How the media framed the male and the female accused (i.e.; Were photos used to help create a particular view? Was the language or urgency of the piece different? Is there a clear discrepancy between the two cases?) Explain this, using a sociological lens.
