I found it difficult at the start deciding on a subject that I could get involved in doing and that I wouldn't just get bored of the research I had for it, The first story I looked at was recently a blind man got tasered for having his cane mistakenly took for a samurai sword, I researched pretty deeply into this story because there were a lot of related articles surrounding police misuse of non lethal weapons and debates on weather police should carry tasers at all.
In the paper I bought (the I) there was another story I chose to look at, it was about the recent rumour that Fidel Castro had died. The story of this was in fact he wasn't dead and he has posed with a copy of that days paper. Although there wasn't much recent news surrounding Fidel Castro I decided to use this story simply because when I started to look back into his life there were some very interesting discoveries I made.
Fidel Castro attacks 'imperialist media' for reporting rumours about his health
This was the original story that first put me onto researching further into Fidel castro.
This lead me then onto several other articles about Castro
Weird and wonderful, the facts about Fidel Castro
638 ways to kill Castro
and then I eventually watched a documentary on the BBC called 638 ways to kill Castro.
From history in school i knew a bit about Fidel Castro already, I knew there had been lots of attempts on his life, looking into it further though really became very interesting. This is the main focus of my project surrounding Castro.
