.What is the real story of SOPA and PIPA?

Today you are going to RESEARCH each of these proposed bills to find out what the real truth is and what is propaganda.

You must find 6 current articles about this bills (3 for each). You must read each of the articles completely and you must post your URL's here in a comment. Your articles must be from reliable and reputable sources.

After you have found and read the articles you are to use MS Publisher to create a ONE page flyer about the facts of SOPA and PIPA. Your flyer should be informational and truthful. Your flyer should draw the readers attention with a professional font, content and graphics. No more than 2 graphics can be used. You may use a page border to enhance the flyer.

The purpose of the flyer is to INFORM the public about the true meaning of SOPA and PIPA. You must inform the reader about what is truth and what is not the truth. Basically you should take a truth and lie approach. For each lie you must state a truth.
