The political viewpoint of a newspaper can be learned by reading the: comics front-page sports section editorial page

Answers

The correct answer should be the editorial page because editorials are opinion pieces that reflect the opinions of the publication.

THE EDITORIAL PAGE

In the early days of journalism in the United States, the political opinion of the paper wasn't just on the editorial pages.  Early publications had a clear slant and purpose.  For instance, The New York Post was started in 1801 by Alexander Hamilton, with the intention of using the paper to promote the views of the Federalist Party.   Then Benjamin Day introduced the idea of the penny newspaper, starting The Sun as a New York daily paper in 1833, for the price of just a penny.  (That would equate to about 25 cents in today's economy.)  It made the news accessible and affordable to everyone, and Day's paper reported lots of news in straightforward fashion.  It was the first paper to report on events involving ordinary persons -- recording crimes, deaths, suicides, etc.  

More and more, newspapers shifted to a broader, less partisan approach as a way of expanding their readership (and thus selling more papers).  The editorial page of each newspaper thus developed as the space within the paper where the editorial staff's political viewpoint could be seen.

Which sentence contains an adjective clause?a. Others, such as flies, have only two wings.
b. All insects have six legs, two antennae, and three body parts.
c. Most insects have compound eyes that are actually thousands of tiny eyes.
d. Some insects, such as grasshoppers, have four wings.

Answers

A clause must have a verb. An adjective clause is a dependent clause, which cannot exist on its own, it has to be a part of the main clause. So, having this in mind, the only adjective clause in these examples is 'that are actually thousands of tiny eyes', therefore, C is the correct answer.
