When
choosing the style that I wanted to use to rewrite my news story, I found it
hard not to choose blogging. I wanted to
be able to tell a story but at the same time give my opinion about that story. I feel that an opinion about a news story is
just as important as the story itself. I choose to do this essay with
consecutive posts as the story progressed.
I wanted to be able to show that a story can be stated without great
detail. A blogger can then go back and
continue posting, adding more and more info as either they hear it or they
research it[O1] . I chose to rewrite the story about
Christopher Dorner as I heard about it on CNN. http://www.cnn.com/2013/02/10/us/lapd-attacks/index.html?iref=allsearch

So what’s
up with this Dorner guy? Apparently he shot and killed two people and is now on
the run? Man that’s crazy. From what I
understand he was fired and wanted revenge against whoever fired him. I mean if he was fired it was probably for
good reason not just because somebody didn’t like him. No one has the right to just start shooting
people because they are pissed off. I
hope they catch this guy.

So Dorner
is still on the run and apparently now there is an award out for his capture,
one million dollars. Man what I would
give to have some info to catch this guy.
After hearing about this story originally I did some research into why
Dorner was fired. Apparently in 2009
Dorner and his partner responded to a call about a mentally ill man creating a
disturbance in a hotel. A few weeks
later Dorner reported that his partner had kicked the man but an IA (internal
affairs) investigation concluded that this wasn’t true and Dorner was fired for
disciplinary reasons. He appealed but to
no avail. Apparently, he targeted the
daughter of the man who represented him at his termination hearing. Cruel way to get revenge, it’s really
sad. I’m really starting to hate this
guy.

So I have been
following the guy Christopher Dorner’s story ever since I heard that he is
accused of killing two police officers.
We all know that he is on the run and to be honest I am kind of
impressed that he has lasted so long. I
just got an update on my iPhone that told me that a body was found in a burned out [O2] cabin that is
believed to be Dorner’s. Authorities
aren’t able to identify the body because it is apparently to badly burned. I heard that he even got into a shootout with
more cops and even killed one of them. I
find it pretty crazy that some guy would do this I mean he was fired, yea that
sucks, but it doesn’t mean you should go and kill people because of it. I think that this guy ultimately got what was
coming for him; after the cops that he shot and
killed. If it happens to be Dorner I
will be happy they got him, he
