Taking a Position Online

Using Tan-Li Hsu’s “High on Caffeine: Regulating Energy Drinks” from pages 380-383 in the course text as a guide, locate another online position paper. Include the title and website address, and identify which of the features of position papers the example displays, including presenting the issue, asserting a clear unequivocal position, arguing directly for the position, establishing credibility, counter arguing objections and opposing positions. Discuss the role of position in the online environment.

Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length. Support your claims with examples from required material(s) and/or other scholarly resources, and properly cite any references.
