Thucydides wrote more specific events and had less information. The difference with Herodotus was that he was less specific but had more information. I think that the articule about Gitmo(http://www.nytimes.com/2011/06/01/us/01gitmo.html?_r=1&ref=sept112001) was more like Thucydides. The articule was very specific about one thing and had a large amount of information. It seemed like he would right this articule because of the detail.
I think the articule about antiterrorism registry was more like Herodotus (http://www.nytimes.com/2011/05/31/nyregion/antiterrorism-registry-ends-but-its-effects-remain.html?ref=sept112001). The article was less exact on the processes that they are using. Although it has much more information in general. The Herodotus writing style works well with this article because it needs information.
