Objectivity Report:

  The results to the survey I posted for my friends on Facebook weren't what I expected them to be.  Every question's answers were pretty even.  Even though most people seem to rely on online sources they added comments like; "I still read the news paper, why didn't you give an option for that?"  Or that they still enjoy reading the news paper.  I could have added a question asking about their age to see if that has anything to do with their preference in reading material.  Most rely on news sites for local news and entertainment not world news like I expected it to be.  When asked which type of news story they preferred they responded local news only because they want to be informed of what is going on near them.  They all responded no when asked if there sources had anything to do with their political party and 75% rely on the sites they use. The survey also showed that people check it most of the time.  To me the survey shows that online news sites are good sources that people should rely on, which means that they should be accurate and trustworthy.  People depend more on news sites for local news it seems a lot easier than to wait every morning for a paper or sit around waiting for the news show to start.  The online news sources are updated at any minute the world is impacted with a bigger story that people should and want to know about.
