• the author provides a biased or objective perspective, 
• the information presented can be misinterpreted or misused by the lay public, and

The article I chose is The Unique Disadvantage of Older Women Face in the Workplace. http://www.pbs.org/newshour/making-sense/the-unique-disadvantage-older-women-face-in-the-workforce/

It's a short article.

 

This is a snapshot on what I would like for to talk about in more detail, feel free to add your own opinions as well.....

 

What I would like you to address in this paper is that I disagree that older women have a disadvantage. More and more aging workers are deciding against retirement. They feel that you can get bored going on vacations and playing bingo everyday. With the economy taking a hit over the several decades, so did their retirement so the younger generation is finding it difficult to get experience because the aging workforce won't leave. I feel that in our current culture that the older females have the upper hand especially when they are taking better care of themselves by exercising regularly and eating healthy. They said 60 is the new 40 so would you want to retire at the age of 40, certainly not. I also believe that aging women in the workplace are assets to networking with other because women are masters of putting their ideas to the test although this comes with experience.
