Homework D

Dear students,
Homework D is to write six in-text citations from different media sources in MLA style and to compile a bibliography of these six citations in your works cited. The emphasis on this assignment is to attempt citation from a variety of different sources (for example, book, magazine, newspaper, website).
For maximum points, you should include at least five different types of media sources.
You may also wish to check your bibliography by using an automatic generator, such as the ones below.
