Media Use - Observations

Every Monday through to Friday I watch 'The Project' to get my daily news dose.
This is my only source of news purely because it is very easy to just sit and watch the news. I also find this the most entertaining form of news. I cannot compare through the survey as to what my peers may watch to get their news, however because majority agreed that they also watch TV to get their news, it can be assumed that they also find it is the easiest way to catch up on the news.

I am not very much of a 'blogger' but this doesn't mean that I will not succeed in Journalism. I believe that all Journalists have their own way to express to what they are thinking. This is why my media use does not show very much blogging time.

From the Survey Monkey results it is seen that majority (51.1%) of our course are 17-18 years old, including me. Therefore this explains the high amount of internet usage which most people agreed is spent social networking. I also spend most of my time on the internet on Facebook. Although it was not asked on the Survey Monkey how much time is spent communicating through the use of a mobile, because of our age group I can assume that they would have also spent a lot of time texting or making phone calls.

To conclude, through completing my own person media use and production diary and then comparing my results to that of my peers it is clear that I am a very average teenage Uni student completing JOUR1111.
