Bull Run/Iraq War Coverage

The Bull Run article is different, because obviously, it is outdated. It uses almost a differnt "language," which is older English. There seems to be no quotes in the Bull Run article, but the Iraq has quotes of people, and of people talking back and forth. The Iraq one is current and talks about current events goin on. This one has today's technology. The Bull Run article talks about strategies and what has been going on. Since the world and war is so strategic and secretive today, strategies are not given out in the news now. In the Bull Run article, it seems like it is more about writing than reporting, it seems to flow like a novel story. However, in today's article of the Iraq stroy, it is about reporting and informing of what is going on, who is talking, where they are from, etc.
