Evaluation of News Magazine Stories

Story 1: Trump, Cruz Trade Jabs as Iowa Contest Approaches

-This is distinctly a debate between the two front-runners of the Republican party for the presidential election. More specifically, these two, as described in the title of the piece, have been going at each other with the Iowa primary elections coming up on Monday, and who will win the vote for the primary election.
-Good guy: Definitely Ted Cruz. Although he's not the crowd favorite as far as the elections are going, he is seen more as the underdog that people want to root for.
-Bad guy: Donald Trump of course. Trump has been a field day for the news outlets recently and he will continue to be as long as he keeps talking and making comments that send everyone into a tizzy about how bad they were.

Story 2: The Republican Establishment's Delegate Problem

-Yet another problem and debate between Republican candidates Donald Trump and Ted Cruz. However this time, its between Republicans. The problem is that the party usually backs up a more "establishment-type" candidate, but with Trump being the front-runner in the polls, they may end up backing an anti-establishment candidate.
-Good guy: Again Ted Cruz. He is the most moderate, safe option besides maybe Jeb Bush the Republican side has right now.
-Bad guy: Donald Trump, yet again. His anti-establishment sentiment has gotten him noticed by quit a few people and it making the Republican party nervous.
