Main points: Josh occasionally interacted with his viewers with strange voices and clown faces. The viewers wanted to vote him out and asked Tanya why she let Josh say shitty things or ignore her. Some visitors stayed 8 or 10 hours a day in the chat box to comment their behaviour. Then Tanya realised that her relationship was empty.
Paragraph 15, 33 lines
Main points: On day 55 there where 130000 visitors, when Josh and Tanya had a yelling match. Josh accused Tanya of being boring in bed. Tanya told him he was fat. There came a flood of commentary out of the chat-box. Tanya told Josh she wanted to move out. They decided to part as friends and see what would happen. She went skiing with a girlfriend. When she came back the visitors said she had cheating on Josh. Paragraph 16, 15 lines
Main points: Five days before her schedule moved, John gave her his publicist his approval on a New York Post reporting that he had ‘ordered her out’ of the loft. Tanya said him he had broken a fundamental trust in their relationship. Josh said she should be glad that she had got into the Post and that they spelled here name correctly. Josh left her. Paragraph 17, 7 lines
Main points: Josh had left, because he wanted to play the control freak manipulating the press to suit his ego. He needed her to disappear. Tanya had to pack a single back and take a final and public walk of shame to the door. Paragraph 18, 6 lines
Main points: Tanya rented a storage space so she could stash her stuff while she took a trip to Colorado to ‘de-programme’ herself before looking for an apartment. Paragraph 19, 19 lines
Main points: When she went to the loft to finish packing, John greeted her. He asked her to stay. She said: no, because she was sick of the cameras and the chats. Paragraph 20, 30 lines
Main points: Tanya’s feeling after the project is mixed. It taught her a lot about herself and showed her that she was with the wrong guy and when she was in the mood for it, the attention from all observers was great. However, privacy is very important to her and during the project she had no privacy. I thought this article was clearly written, because the writer used paragraphs and sub-headings. The author’s opinion is not expressed, because Tanya tells the whole story. Assignment 3
1. Tanya Corrin and Josh Harris
2. In New York in America
3. The galvanising personality and wild ideas
4. 32 cameras and 18 video players
5. Chinese, French, Swedish, German and Australian
6. Otherwise everyone would know their address. 7. After 54 days
8. Josh, because he wanted to manipulate the press to suit his ego. 9. Because the cameras were temporarily down. 10. Because they had seen how miserable it Tanya made.
