METHODOLGY - My Project

For the purpose of this study I will conduct a survey study in a convenience-based sampling. Through this survey I hope to determine what drives media choices, if education levels are a factor in that choice and how satisfied participants are with available news. I will administer the survey to college classes at Lewis-Clark State College, as well as Walla Walla Community College, Clarkston campus. I will also administer the survey to professors at both colleges as well as individuals working at TPC Holdings in Lewiston.
The questions that I hope to answer are:

RESEARCH QUESTION 1: Do we seek out specific news media that reinforce our opinions?

RESEARCH QUESTION 2: Is there a correlation in a person’s educational level and news-seeking habits?

RESEARCH QUESTION 3: Does our personal satisfaction in the available information have a correlation to our news seeking habits?
