Women’s Prize For Non Fiction: Guardian Investigation Reveals Alarming Rise

Women's Prize for Nonfiction, Guardian Investigation Reveals Alarming rise of how women’s are prizes for Nonfiction  News Agency: The Guardian  In the grand old halls of literature, stories have always echoed—of wars and kings, inventions and revolutions. But listen closely, and you’ll notice something: many of those stories were told by men. For years, the shelves of nonfiction books—biographies, history, science, politics—were overwhelmingly filled with male voices.But in 2025, something changed. That’s when a new award was born:  The Women’s Prize for Nonfiction . It wasn’t just a shiny trophy—it was a signal. A signal that  women’s experiences, research, insight, and stories  in the world of nonfiction deserved the same spotlight, the same respect. Why now? Because despite progress in fiction and poetry, women writing nonfiction still often faced hurdles. Fewer were published. Even fewer were reviewed or nominated for top prizes. Their works—though brilliant...

Air India Ahmadebad Plane Crash: "Investigators To Focus On Plane's Engine Thrust, Wing Flaps And Landing Gear" Group News Story Analysis News Agency: The Guardian  Date: 13th June 2025 1. Yes. The image is exactly depicting the headline's message. It can be observed that the plane is terribly destroyed after its impact with the ground and all the body parts including the engine and wings are destroyed. The headline is therefore echoing the effort by the investigators to identify the root causes of that. 2. The image evokes one of utter sympathy and despair given the grueling fate that more than 240 people lost their lives in an air disaster. It's very sympathetic. 3. The image is factual. It's not manipulative or deceptive in any way. This particular accident is a global news and it's told and depicted the exact way it happened. No addition nor subtractions. It's what it is. 4. The composition of the image is vivid and eye-catching. Though what is le...

NDC HITS WITH SAD NEWS

DIANA AZURE  BABJ28097 NDC HITS WITH SAD NEWS Shaddad Umar Jallo, a pillar of the Ashaiman National Democratic Congress (NDC) and a key figure in the party's National Zongo Caucus Coordinating Team, passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, June 14th, 2025. The news rippled through the community, leaving a void that will be hard to fill. He reportedly succumbed to an illness at East Legon, though the precise cause remains unconfirmed. Family members, however, hinted at a possible connection to hypertension. Jallo's passing marked the end of a significant chapter in Ashaiman's political landscape. He was, at the time of his death, serving his second term as the NDC's constituency chairman, a testament to the trust and respect he commanded. His contributions to the party’s 2024 electoral campaign were nothing short of phenomenal; he spearheaded efforts that dramatically curtailed the New Patriotic Party's (NPP) vote share in Ashaiman—a near halving of their 2020 perfor...

Individual News Analysis-story 1#IVS2025#UniMacIFT #visual storytelling  June 15 2025 Individual news Analysis-story 1 Headline:"I saw people dying in front of my eyes "British survivor describes Air India crash. News Agency:The Guardian  June 13 2025 The image does not visually depict the chaos, destruction or loss of life described in the headline. Instead , the personal experience and the aftermath of the crash. Therefore, the image and the headline do not perfectly align in terms of the message they convey. However the image evokes the feeling of sympathy and compassion for the survivor,who has clearly been through a traumatic experience while the image is certainly serious and somber, it may not create a sense of urgency or immediate action, as the survivor is already receiving medical attention . The image doesn't appear to be overly manipulative or altered in a way that would distort its meaning or authenticity, also the the image does frame the story in a way focu...

Headline: "19 Arrested For Suspected Drug Trade And Robbery Within Gomoa Dominase" News Agency: Adom Online Date: Thursday June 13th, 2025. 8:13 pm. 1. Yes it does. The image actually portrays the individuals being caught with the very things they have been alleged to have stollen or illegally possessing and  have been apprehended for. 2. The image does evoke urgency. These are hardcore criminals who have robbed people of their possessions for years and are known to control illegal substances until finally, they have been caught by the law enforcement agencies so yeah, it's a serious and urgent matter as portrayed in the image.  3. This particular image is not biased. Infact there's no form of biasness towards violent and greedy individuals who are willing to kill to get what they want. As the adage goes, "no mercy for the crippled". Sorry for my language but they got what they deserve. No sentiment attached, only my pure and unadulterated judgement given th...

 Individual News Analysis Story 1 News Agency: The Guardian  Date: Wed June 11th, 2025. 17: 13 CEST. 1. The image really does represent the headline. In the photo we can see black Africans in a typical rural setting with a bag of rice on a scale having a USAID name and logo boldly inscribed on it. Although the USAID does come in diverse means such as financial grants, technical assistances and advisory support, majority comes in the form of food supplies, medical items and other miscellaneous to usually deprived communities, refugees and conflict areas. This particular photo highlights one of such places. 2. There's a sad, and crestfallen look on the individual beneficiaries around. With the Trump administration's plan to cut of subsequent aid to the continent, some worried concerns can be observed on the faces of the people standing around the supplies. The emotions depicted here might not necessarily connect with the US government's plan of scraping the support and might ...
