Response:

This article, published by the Associated Press and displayed on the New York Times website, is basically about a famous referee named Byron Moreno who was arrested for possessing heroin.

Although the article focused more on sports news and didn't mention any games or tournaments, it was excellently written and provided a lot of straight facts that were direct and objective.

The writer of the article gave a lot of background on the referee and described the scene of the crime perfectly. The writer also have some good scenery and imagery of previous games that the referee participated in.

Overall, the reporter did an excellent job and was very objective.
