The strategies used in analytical hypertexts are different than those used in personal hypertexts. In personal hypertext you do not need to worry about things like biases and voice but in an analytical hypertext the read should be the one forming their own opinion bases on the facts you present. You should not tell the reader what to think. It’s very hard to completely hide your bias but the more hidden it is the better the hypertext will be. Good strategies that the previous classes used were quotes from blogs and other controversial or “not reliable” informational sources, links to other websites that have similar views on an issue. Although you should try your best to do a reporter style of writing to curb all biases you have, you can still get your point across by bolding certain words or using a different font or font color. If you want a point to get across bold that word and make it a different color. To be successful on this hypertext I must remember to curb my bias and present information factually.
