CONCLUSION/OVERALL ASSESSMENT
 When I examine this information, It is timely and relevant to our current scenario with the oil spill that
impacted many individuals. The material's source is legitimate, accurate, and reliable because CNN is one of
the world's most well-known and largest news channels, providing up-to-date information on current
events. Its objective is to inform people about the impact of the oil disaster on our health, jobs, and the
environment. I recognized that we are increasingly using new media to give or distribute knowledge around
the world, as opposed to the conventional methods of newspapers and radio .
