Comparing and Contrasting post #4

Article Used: Who's Your Daddy? and Fare Haired Infant Saved

Summary: The articles that I read today talked about a little girl that was left in a cab with a cab driver yesterday February 28, 2008. The baby and her father entered the cab together. Then her father said that he needed to use the phone so the cab driver pulled over. The man walked to the phone and then ran away quickly jumping into another cab, abandoning the baby. Once the cab driver realized what had happened he took the baby to the nearest fire house. The fire fighters there called EMS to come and get the baby checked out. The baby is about 6 or 7 months old and in excellent condition which proves that she had been well taken care of before this incident. The baby girl that still has not been identified has been placed with a Foster Family already!

Opinion: This little girl is so pretty and so precious! I don't understand how people have children and then just do all these irresponsible things to them. I can say that I am happier that this parent left her in a cab instead of killing her or drowning her like the lady did in another blog post that I posted earlier. At least this way someone that wants to be bothered with this wonderful baby has the opportunity to love and adore this child!

Prompt: Comparing and Contrasting two articles

Both of the articles that I read were about the little girl that was abandoned by a man that we think might have been her father. One article I read on the internet from the NY Post and the other I read in the Newspaper from the Daily News. Both articles had similar information. They both included pictures of the baby and a sketch of the man that left the baby in the cab as he ran off. They both told the same story about how the child had been abandoned. The things that I found different about the articles was that it seemed to me that the NY Post told the shorter version of the story. I liked the language that the Post used to describe what the baby had on. It described that the baby was "swaddled" in pink clothing. And the Daily News took the side of the abandoned baby. I guess they can't understand why the man that left her in the cab would do such a thing so they referred to the man that left the baby as a creep! I thought that the Daily News' had a catchy title for this story!
