1) I think some of the Shark Finner's side of the story was omitted, for an example, it may be the only income that family has. The message that Rob Stewart is trying to convey is a positive message, so I don't mind that he has biased his documentary in his favor.
2) Rob Stewart and his friends seem to be unaware of the conditions that some of these shark finners.
3) I agree with the message of Rob Stewart because it's an environmental friendly message, which will help us create a sustainable future.
4) It was clearly biased twords Rob Stewart, like when it played calm music during the shark parts and showed sharks being very calm and 'cute', while only portraying the finners uglier scenarios.
5) I do not agree with the courts overruling of the Shark Fin Ban. First of all, I do not agree with the fact that sharks are being finned in the first place, because I find it very cruel. Secondly, the fact that they are calling it culturally biased is completely nonsense because the person who proposed the ban in the first place was of Asian heritage.

Spellbound Questions
1. Because the director wants the viewers to feel attached to the competitors, so they can share and relate to their experiences.
2. The children the documentary followed each displayed different attitudes and religious beliefs. Another thing that made them stand out from each other was their different studying methods and routines.
3. I agree with the way that some of the children acted, because I understand that studying is the key to success, and the hard work payed off in the end.
4.I think it left out many aspects of the home and school life of the children, and some of the parents may be putting more pressure on their kids than is shown.
5. Depending on the environments the children were interviewed in, I could make various judgement about each child.

News and Bias questions
1. I think that although Karl Rove as clear ties to the republican party, it is acceptable that he has been hired by Fox News because they are known to be very right wing. People who watch Fox News are not expecting an un-biased opinion.
2. It is in Karl Rove's best interest to delay the call because if Romney wins he will get tax cuts.
3. Because Trump has a reputation to keep, but he is posting clearly biased and immature tweets. It is evident that he is right wing and upset about Obama's victory.
