            In this article by Kyung  Lah from CNN, the author talks about how Japan doesn't like how people criticize that they eat dolphins. It's a tradition to kill dolphins. They have been doing it for hundreds of years. The Japanese feel that eating dolphin is the same as everybody else eating other animals such as deer, chicken and cow. On the other hand, other people in the Western Hemisphere of the Earth such as Ric O'Barry, are disgusted with what the Japanese are doing to the species they love. The authors purpose is inform on how there is good reasons on both sides of the story. Not only does he show that there is good reason to eating them, but also good reason to save them. The authors veiwpoint isn't strong because the author only shows viewpoints of other people and quotes. This is an accurate source because it's from CNN and CNN is a worldwide newscast.
