Assignments for Tuesday, Oct. 18, Wednesday, Oct. 19, and Thursday, Oct. 20

For Tuesday, read Matt Taibbi, Griftopia, pp. 3-34. Pay attention to the author's tone (his attitude toward the subject) and his narrative persona. Think about how his attitude toward the financial crisis influences the way he writes about it.

For Wednesday and Thursday, in Griftopia, read pp. 35-77. As you read, think about whether Taibbi proves his central claim about Alan Greenspan.
