The New York Times reported that the captured Indian pilot will be released on Friday, according to a statement by Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Kahn on Wednesday.
The pilot was captured by armed forces in Pakistan after his plane crashed in a military conflict with Pakistani jet fighters, according to the Wall Street Journal. After two days of waiting, the announcement by Kahn signals a call to peace between the two nations, the New York Times reported.
Pakistan soldiers found the pilot being beaten by villagers before they rescued him, and through video propaganda that spread on social media, the pilot said that the soldiers were treating him very well, the Wall Street Journal reported. India viewed the propaganda as a a violation of norms over captured prisoners and thought the footage was made to circumvent larger issues between the two countries, according to the Wall Street Journal.
The New York Times wrote that the conflict arose after India accused Pakistan of being responsible for a terrorist attack in Kashmir that killed 40 Indian troops on Feb. 14. The recent military conflict on Wednesday brought the two nations close to war, while many countries including the U.S., Britain, and China have been urging them to stop the conflict, the New York Times reported.

Students at the U of M weigh their thoughts about Amy Klobuchar - Online Story Lab
BY JOE KELLY
Sen. Amy Klobuchar from Minnesota is currently running in the 2020 presidential race and students from the University of Minnesota were unmoved by her take on marijuana policies and reacted negatively to her treatment of staff.
According to the New York Times, Klobuchar has been harsh on her staff. In one incident, news outlets reported that after a staff member lost Klobuchar's eating utensils before a flight, Klobuchar pulled out a comb, ate her salad with it, then gave it to the staff member and told him to clean it.
"That's kind of insulting," said Hannah Ihekoronye, a student at the University.
"I think that's a little harsh," said another student, Tasnia Iffat. "What she does to an individual can be really representing of what she can do to a large group of people."
Another student, Ian Allen, cut Klobuchar some slack for criticisms of her staff treatment. "A lot of times, that's kind of a gendered argument," Allen said. "The same sorts of critiques might not necessarily be made against a man in a position of power." Still, Allen said that he thinks Klobuchar's treatment of staff is problematic.
Students also weighed in on Klobuchar's views on recreational marijuana.
In a statement to news outlets, she said she will support legalization of marijuana. She further stated she believes the states should have the power to decide how recreational marijuana will be treated within their borders.
"I don't care," Ihekoronye said. "I don't think it's one of our biggest issues. If she supports it, she supports it."
"I'm kind of neutral on that," Iffat said. "But, there's a lot of people in Minnesota that say yes, so I think that would sway her allegiance."
"I feel like that's kind of negative, personally," student Muchen Xi said. Xi said that although medical marijuana is needed, he doesn't think recreational marijuana is a good idea.
When interviewees were asked about whether they favored Klobuchar more due to her Minnesota roots, most of them responded that there are more important aspects of her politics that should be considered.
"I think it's definitely a positive thing," Iffat said. "But I don't think that would influence me to vote for her more."

Walz proposes $1.27 billion for public construction
BY JOE KELLY
Gov. Tim Walz revealed a $1.27 billion proposal on Tuesday that would borrow funds for public construction, according to WCCO.
The Pioneer Press reported that the proposal includes $345 million for public transportation, $300 million for higher education, $150 million for housing, and $38.8 million for prisons, while the remaining half would be used to preserve existing assets.
Walz made the announcement at the Fort Snelling Upper Post veterans housing community, WCCO reported. The proposal was met with opposition from many republicans who said that the proposal from Walz would be a better option in 2020, according to the Pioneer Press.
The proposal would need a three-fifths majority vote in the senate, which requires six votes from the GOP, the Pioneer Press reported. "We're not saying 'no,' to a bonding bill," Sen. David Senjem said in a statement. "We're saying 'not yet'".

AP News Updates (News Analysis Week 5)
BY JOE KELLY
I followed three different stories for over an hour, but none of them got any updates to their story nor did they have any updates later from the Associated Press.
I compared screenshots of earlier versions to the versions I accessed around two hours later, but not a word or punctuation mark was changed. I also looked around for stories that might have had multiple points of coverage from different angles or timelines, but I couldn't find any.
However, one thing I noticed about the New York Times' Associated Press section was that it was updated frequently, about every five to 15 minutes. Some stories seemed to be repeated, but their titles and content remained the exact same. I wonder if this was because the Associated Press decided that those stories were more important, and needed to be redistributed to gain more attention.

States join California in lawsuit against Trump
BY JOE KELLY
Sixteen states filed a lawsuit Monday against President Trump's national state of emergency and attempt to allocate billions of dollars toward border security without congressional approval, according to the New York Times.
The Wall Street Journal reported that the complaint accuses Trump for showing disregard for the separation of powers and unnecessarily declaring a national state of emergency. The complaint argues that only Congress has the power to apply federal funds to the U.S.-Mexico border, according to the New York Times.
The complaint was filed by California as the states of Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, and Virginia joined the suit, according to the Wall Street Journal.
The suit argues that Trump admitted himself that he did not need to declare a national state of emergency, the Wall Street Journal reported. "I could have done the wall over a longer period of time," Trump said on Friday. "I didn't need to do this, but I'd rather do it much faster."

Gov.-elect Tony Evers will propose legalization of marijuana in Wisconsin
BY JOE KELLY
Wisconsin Gov.-elect Tony Evers will propose to decriminalize marijuana for the upcoming state budget, KARE 11 reported Sunday.
Medical conditions like cancer would be treatable by medical marijuana under Evers's proposal, according to MPR News. Currently, patients can use CBD oil (a marijuana derivative) with a doctor's certification, KARE 11 reports. KARE 11 reports that Evers's proposal would remove the need for a doctor's certification.
The proposal would also remove criminal records for people convicted of selling small amounts of marijuana, MPR reported. This would remove state penalties for distribution of 25 grams or less of marijuana, according to MPR.
KARE 11 reported that Evers will present the proposal on Feb. 28. However, the state legislature may not approve the proposal due to the divide between republicans and democrats over the legalization of marijuana, MPR reported.

How Attribution Is Used (News Analysis Week 4)
BY JOE KELLY
Kare 11 wrote an article about a deadly shooting in Nevis, Minnesota.
In the first paragraph, the reporter summarizes that three people died and a police officer was injured from a gunshot wound. Nothing about what led to the shooting was included in the summary.
The reporter organizes the information by first writing about the summary of the deaths and injuries from the incident. Next, they report the time that police were called to the shooting, and the mention of a police chase.
Then, the reporter mentions claims from an undisclosed family member that say the shooting began with a domestic argument, and that the shooting occurred at a house that also served as a daycare. Lastly, the reporter writes about a partner news outlet, KVLY, is investigating the story in Nevis.
The organization of this article makes sense because the only fact that Hubbard County police can confirm is the death and injuries from the shooting. This information is reported first. The other details are from an undisclosed source, and the county cannot confirm all that information just yet. For this reason, the information is listed after what is already known.
It wouldn't make sense for this article to order the information any differently, because journalists have to take factual priorities into their reporting of any event.

Trump's Border Wall Issue Creates State of Emergency
BY JOE KELLY
President Trump declared a national of emergency over border security funding on Friday, according to the Wall Street Journal.
The announcement was made from the White house after Congress refused to give Trump $5.7 billion, the Wall Street Journal reported. According to the New York Times, Trump is amassing $8 billion by taking money from the military, presidential, and Treasury Department budgets.
This is all being done without Congress approval, the Wall Street Journal wrote. "I didn't need to do this," Trump said to news outlets, referring to his declaration of emergency over border security funding. "But I'd rather do it much faster."
Democrats and republicans criticized Trump for his unconstitutional action, the New York Times reported. The Wall Street Journal wrote that presidents in the past never signed declarations of emergency over actions that Congress rejected.

How Sources Are Used (News Analysis Week 3)
BY JOE KELLY
A 5 Eyewitness News article reports that a St. Paul man was charged in the shooting of a bus driver on Interstate Highway 35W.
The story used three sources, and one of them was not named. Two of the sources include a release from the Hennepin County Attorney's Office, and the other was video evidence from MnDOT.
The third source was a criminal complaint, which gave descriptions of the order of events, but the source who provided the complaint wasn't named.
The sources follow each other throughout the story. The first source is the release which provides significant details, then the next paragraphs use the criminal complaint's information. The information from the video was inserted within the criminal complaint.
The writer attributes to the sources in a standard fashion, referring to them at the beginning or end of each paragraph. It is effective because it shows what information is confirmed by the Attorney's Office and which information is from somebody who witnessed the shooting.

How a Lede Can Be Used (News Analysis Week 2)
BY JOE KELLY
The Star Tribune's article, "A career of firsts and hurdles for St. Paul assistant police chief", starts with a startling narrative lede that leaves a lot of ambiguity and suspense.
The news elements included in the lede are the who, what, where, and when. The who is the most detailed, explaining that Wuorinen was new on the job as a cop. The what was also detailed because the article described Wuorinen was by herself on patrol, and then ends with the kid shooting at her.
The time is general, as the article states that the year is 1989, but didn't list out the month or date. The where was also general, because the author only mentioned that the event occurred in St. Paul.
Although the lede shares many of the same elements as a news story would, it's written to fit a personal profile story, because the who, what, where, and when in the lede don't include the main idea of the whole story. The story itself is about Kathy Wuorinen retiring after a successful and boundary-breaking career. The lede was used as an intriguing introduction to one of the many encounters Wuorinen faced in the field.
