Regarding "Clock Boy Returns" (Thursday Lifestyle Weekly), the article devotes five pages - including the cover - to telling us the doings of Ahmed Mohamed, the Irving TX boy who was arrested for bringing to school a homemade clock that looked like a bomb.
The article recounts in detail Ahmed's travels, his family and the effect of his celebrity. It recounts the events leading up to his arrest and the aftermath, including reaction from all parts of society. The article covers his opinions about nearly everything, and, incredibly, proclaims him to be black.
The only thing this kitchen sink of an article doesn't cover is the one thing I was interested in: his post celebrity science career. The child was made famous by science when he built the clock. What has been happening since then?
