This length does not include the bibliography (at least 10 sources) or any graphics that you may include. (Excellent papers will include graphics such as maps, photographs, tables, and charts.) Your paper should be complete in all its parts.If you are using charts, maps, or any other figures, do not forget to include a title, legend (if necessary), and source.
I strongly encourage you to investigate some non-mainstream news sources to compare them with the mainstream media. Here are some links to sites that I often read:
