2. The who, what, where, when, why, and how were stated in the second paragraph. 
3. Yes, there were nine quotes in the story. 
4. Some were in quote-transition format, but most were not. 
5. It quoted Kevin McLoughlin, Doral Chenoweth III, Ken Andrews, Tony Florentino, Shane Cormier, Patrick Harris, and Ted Williams. 
6. "My boss said to me: 'If you don't get him hired, you're fired,'" said Kevin McLoughlin. 
7. It has 33 paragraphs. 
8. It has 1,524 words.

10. They did that for dramatic effect and to make the reader consider this story when they hear a voice advertisement. 
11. Yes, it was interesting.

13. Watching the video helped me relate and understand the person more. Reading the story makes it feel abstract, but seeing him and hearing his voice allowed me to look at him as person instead of a news topic.  
14. It would have lost some impact, but the overall message would still get across. 
15. Yes, they did describe the voice. 
16. They describe his "radiant pipes" and add passages of things he might say such as, "Watch Family Guy , weeknights at 7:30 on Fox 28!"
