What research to include and how to include it in a way that still allows the paper to flow.

Podcast - Fear and Loathing in Homer and Rockville
Biased research – looking up info to support what he already believed
Some of the crazy reports made were actually true – 1,000 women in Germany being assaulted around the time of New Years
