In today's world, how you read the news and access it is inherently important. Different news sources release different information as it pertains to their target audience. As a college student put into the 'bubble' that High Point University is, when I access my information I want to be able to look at sources that I know are truthful in their news reports and try to hold no biases to a particular group. As a Strategic Communication major with a Creative Writing minor it's important for me to have easy access to the latest news in order to keep up with what's going on in the world.
1. USA Today
USA Today is one of the sources I use for my daily information because it keeps up with day to day news that is current. I use this news source because I have the app downloaded on my phone so it's easier to access that way. I like using USA Today because the website and app are easy to navigate and they split up their topics of what they write about so it is also less time consuming to click on a specific topic if you know what to look at. I would recommend this form of news because of its app and format on its website. 2. The Daily Skimm
The Daily Skimm is another news source I use. This news source also has a website, which I would recommend. The website design is very clean and easy to navigate, something that is good for when you don't have much time to read the news. I usually read this source of news in the morning or in-between my classes. Using this source of news is also easy for me because I have the app on my phone. I would recommend this source of news because of its clean design and easy access. 3. CNN
I don't use CNN as much as I used to, but I used this source a lot in high school to gather information on what was and is going on in the world. My teachers in school always had CNN pulled up when they wanted to show us a short video when relating a CNN article to our class. After my teachers showed me those videos I looked at the site myself and explored articles. I would recommend this source because of its use of videos when clicking on an article. 4. The New York Times
Whenever I traveled I used the New York Times. I would use the above sources before this one, but I have recently started to use this source more as the years have gone by because of how credible this site really is. I want to start using this source more than I already have. I would recommend this source because of its credibility and how long it has been around.5. NBC News
NBC News is one of the news sources that I have used for the longest. I used this news source in high school when getting ready in the morning. I was always interested in how the news anchor presented the news. I stopped using this source for a while after a certain scandal came to light. I sometimes use the source in the mornings at home when I'm on breaks but otherwise I don't use it that much. I would recommend this source because it is more of a channel and if you're in a rush and can't read the news you can listen to it.LINKS
