Oct. 5 -- First of Two Tasks Today

Here is your weekly current affairs quiz.

1. What is the MacArthur Genius Award?

2. What happened with the Pennsylvania voter ID law this past week and explain what the implication of this law might have been?

3. Why is Sesame Street upset over Mitt Romney’s debate?

4. What was the latest development on the murder of the Libyan ambassador that has caused criticism of the Obama Administration? What do you think could have caused this?

5. It is generally assumed that President Obama lost the first debate to Mitt Romney on Wednesday night. What exactly happened to make people think this is true? Explain several examples where the President might have lost points.

Three points each.

Make sure you have answers that demonstrate analysis and that you definitely looked around the web for the answers. Do not copy each other. Good reporters have to know many things and things they don’t they dig up (in your case on the web.)
