What I do is I choose an issue, get get an editorial, an opinion piece and a letter to the editor on it (so it's like that multiple article thing schools usually do for sacs) and then do the analysis
Or something really easy is just to go through the letters page in The Age: there's always lots to analyse and the writers are always really passionate
e.g.: from

Missing the boat
Australia is not pulling its weight internationally on an effective climate change response; India, China, Japan and the US are all way ahead of our opposition-constrained efforts. Even our friends in New Zealand, by buying into wind farms here, see the value in our renewables market that we don't.
Now that the latest reports suggest up to 80 per cent of fossil fuels need to remain in the ground to avoid climate damage, the pro-business Coalition has an even more intractable issue to struggle with.
What hope for the once-lucky country to ever regain its lost status when our business investments do not follow the shifting market opportunities and the path to a clean energy future? Coal is clearly the dying industry as renewables take over, just as the buggy whip was when cars replaced horse-drawn carts.

there's quite a bit here to analyse
