Los Angeles: No Traffic!!


The city of Los Angeles is famous for being a movie city with having Hollywood right next to it. It is known for it celebrities roaming the streets and the amazing venues. Los Angeles has a lot of things to do like going to a game at the Staples Center or going to the Santa Monica pier or visiting Venice Beach. It also has amazing sights and structures to admire.The most famous reason why people come visit Los Angeles is because there is never traffic in the city. The traffic free city has attracted people and tourist to come visit and live. The empty roads make it easier to travel and get to work. Residents in the Los Angeles area say it is the most calm city and the freeways make it easier to get to places. They say that they are never late to appointments and that driving is fun when there is no traffic to get stuck in.When making a drive down to L.A., the freeway was hardly busy and it made it easier to get across town. Also seeing the amazing sites like the Capitol Records Building or the Hollywood Sign is a lot easier without having a big semi truck getting in the way of your view like it happens in other cities. The traffic free freeways and streets has led Los Angeles to have very little pollution in the area. Little Pollution means healthier lives. Tourists coming to the city say they are impressed by how freely they can move around the city without having  to get stop due to traffic jams. The most calmest hours to drive in Los Angeles is from 5pm to 8pm. There is almost no cars on the freeway at this time. Los Angeles is known for a lot of famous structures but the most important is no Traffic.




The theme of “Truth and Fiction” is something we see all the time in the Media. Truth has to do with the true events being portrayed in the media. An example could be from the newspaper or a TV documentary. The Fiction part is when the truth is not stated and the ideas presented are false. This could be like in a movie or a TV show. An example would be when my school newspaper published a paper on April Fools day that had pure false and weird stories. In Politics, the truth is always spoken. Leaders, Congress People, News Anchors must always present the true facts or else they can have serious consequences. Fiction is not always seen in politics unless they make a mistake and apologize for it later on. In Sports, this theme of truth and fiction can be seen. The truth can be in soccer and other sports were nothing is planned and the game is fair. Some people may disagree and say that some sports are fake and that everything is staged and planned. I agree with those people because I know some are just for entertainment. We need to take this theme really serious some we don’t get fooled when something is fiction or truth.
