Annotated Bibliography!

Here is my 1st annotated bibliography for my first source!

MLA sitation:

"Teen Mom 2 (Season One)." The Christian Century 128.25 (2011): 27. Academic OneFile. Web. 11 Apr. 2013.

Summarize:

            This short article is introducing the show that MTV is going to air. The article is about the first season of Teen Mom and explains what the show will consist of. It explains that the camera people will follow around 4 young mothers while they struggle with being a teen mom, with relationships with their parents, while they have financial problems, and most importantly while they struggle to hold a strong relationship with their children’s fathers. The article ends explaining that there will be a couple on the show that has twins, rushes into marriage and then gets divorce. So it goes out with a “bang” and in a way makes you curious and want to watch the show.

Access:

            I know this information in the article is reliable because I found it off of a library database. It was under the category of academic journals, therefore I know it has to be reliable and true. I also know this article is reliable because the show has already aired and I watched it and all the information that the article has in it, is true. This source is objective, it is from an outside news person that is just explaining a show that is soon to come onto the TV. It doesn’t say whether the show is a good or bad show. However, it does say that this show will be a show that makes you cry with the stars rather than laugh at them. The goal of this source is to explain the new show that is coming to MTV.

Reflect:

            This article will be helpful to me when I first start to right my paper. It will help me explain what the reality show Teen Mom is all about, and it gave me good ideas how to prove my point that the show is trying to show that young girls shouldn’t have kids but in a way praises them for it. It can also help me explain the struggles that the girls have while the show is airing because it lists them in the article.
