The Immigration reform has had various important aspects in the news throughout the years. Lately however, there has been more speculations due to the new immigration reform in the congress. I wanted to see how different news  sites, from different countries      put their own perspective on it. For the United States I chose The York Times, CNN and The Guardian. In these news sites, what I  found a lot of information on the topic of immigration, there was a variety to choose from.  The News York Times maintained a formal like approach to the topic of the immigration reform and provided a lot of information on the topic. CNN adresses the immigration reform by providing different polls and how this affected the Obama administration to make a decision  also references are made that The Republican Party is loosing ground when it comes to Hispanic voters. Aljazeera, altough the article I found wasn’t as detailed as the ones found in CNN or The New York Times, it had a video that showed President Barack Obama addressing the public about the immigration reform. El Universal, a major newspaper from Mexico in contrast to the other newspapers didn’t have a lengthy article and only included one picture of John McCain and Chuck Schumer. In the end of the article however, they point out exactly which members of the Republican party rejected the reform and the reasons why the immigration reform was rejected.  In Univision news, which is not a newspaper, but more of a news  segment channel, there was only a video. However, I thought it would  be more opinion based since the news on immigration in the channel are always biased and seem to reflect what the public want’s to hear. The difference was that Univision did have a section only dedicated to immigration topics, unlike El Universal from Mexico.
