Analysis of Sources

I analyzed three journals written by finance graduates. They stands out as professional solely from the appearance because it has a large title, and a logo in the top right corner. The first writing is structured into two columns. The graduate cites information often, providing the years that the information was published, and where they got certain percentages when talking about things such as job rates. There are multiple different titles throughout the paper as the information and topic changes. Some sections are dedicated to opinions and personal experience, while others include numbers, facts, and research questions. The second journal I analyzed was published in a magazine. It had a large title and a hook in order to interest readers. This particular journal is structures in to three columns, divided by title headings to list certain steps. It includes pictures of money hung on a clothes pin to further display the message of "spring-clean out your finances." This writing contains a table to inform the reader on whether they should save or shred their paperwork. They also have a checklist that advises the reader on what to do in certain situations. The tone of all three journals is professional, and convincing through the use of information and advice.
