Final


  • The Rock is the hardest working man in the world
  • The Rock is the nicest person in the world
  • He might run for president
  • He would be a great president
  • Everyone loves him

This article is an excellent example of great journalism. Just reading it is very fun. As a wrestling fan, I know a lot about The Rock, but this article was so well written that I was okay reading information I already knew. It was put together nicely. The writing is very personal. “When Dwayne Johnson meets you (and I can assure you, he would love to), the first thing he will do is ask you six thousand questions about yourself, and remember the answers forever.” That is the somewhat opening to the article. It says, in a fancy way, that the rock is the coolest dude ever. He’s a jack of all trades and he’s mastered them too. There’s nothing that he can’t do, and he’s so loved and great that he will be our next president. He’s if Reagan wasn’t an old prune that got microwaved. The article makes me wanna meet him. I’ve always wanted to meet him, but now I would fly across the country to do so.

What I find interesting about this article is how it’s written. It’s not exactly in order, but it’s pacing and transitions are really only matched by Jon Bois. You can tell that a lot of work went into this article. I love how it jumps around and how it managed to freshen things up right before I get bored. This is a great article. I might even read it again sometime.

  1. Nice work Peyton. I'm glad you caught onto the weird formatting AND how the author used that to keep people interested. It wasn't just a random smattering of facts, they were fully flushed out pieces that were conglomerated together.
