Investigative Journalism #3

So far I think that this project is going to be a little hard because people will tend to deny that they have been guilty of PDA. I also think that many people won't want to participate in our surveys and interviews. I'm hoping that we will be able to get enough of people to admit this on video. Another one might be being able to get together to work on the project. We're all pretty much busy a lot of the time, when one of us isn't the other ones are. I also think that the location where we interview people will affect the results a lot. I don't think we can form a stereotype.
I also think that people will have different opinions on the subject depending on what kind of PDA we ask them about.

Investigative Journalism Project - Complaint 1

The guys are calling me youngster and young'n. This is really annoying.

Investigative Journalism Project #2

I haven't really done any research yet. I did get some opinions on the project from my cousins and they said that it'd be a good idea, but that a lot of people might lie. I'm going to see if I can find any magazine articles on the topic and I'll start asking people.

Investigate Journalism Project #1

My investigative journalism project for Global Comm is on PDA (public display of affection). My partners for this project are Doug and Julian. What we are aiming to do with this project is to get people's opinion on PDA. For example, how would you feel if you saw people making out in public on a daily basis? Many people would say they wouldn't mind, but once they knew we meant passionately making out, then they would change their minds. While a lot of those people would still keep their opinions the same, maybe this is because they have done this themselves. The opinions will vary depending on who we ask, but hopefully this works out.
