Oscar's PIP Questionnaire
Sensationalist Media Portrayal vs Objectivity
I’m a Year 12 student conducting research for my Society & Culture Personal Interest Project. My research focuses on "how does sensationalist media portrayal create fear and compromise objectivity in news reporting". All responses are confidential, and only participant answers will be collected. Please take your time to answer the questions as accurately as possible. The questionnaire should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. Thank you for your participation! :)
