This article is a detailed summary of the fire that occurred on I-85 in Atlanta and the possible suspects who started it who have been arrested. The author’s diction is well informed and serious on the matter. Their level of emotional attachment is probably fairly low considering that most of the journalists for The Daily Mail are based in either the U.K. or Australia. The article contains a lot of pieces and interviews from city council members, prosecutors, and people that live near the accident who “thought a storm was coming or that the sun had set early” due to how thick the smoke was. This all makes the article very strong and solid and shows that the author actually put work into it. The author appeals to logic when writing about the possible culprits and why they were arrested specifically, “one suspect, Basil Eleby, was charged with criminal damage to property; the others, Sophia Bruner and Barry Thomas, were each charged with criminal trespass.” The author’s tone is mainly professional, writing a summary without trying to develop any personal connection or opinion on the matter. The purpose for writing this article was to give a detailed summary of an incident with such a massive impact that happened so quickly.
