Answer:

someone had to do it haha

Step-by-step explanation:

Dear Curtis Wilkie,

I am writing to you today to tell you that I believe that words should not be thought of as better than visual and audio news. Multiple times when I have watched news and heard a clip of a live interview in the midst of a natural disaster you can always really hear in their voice the fear and panic it has caused. Sometimes in the background you can even hear a scream or a shout which adds to the deep intensity. With words all you have is just plain stuff you can't connect as good as a real news station would.
