My Top 5 News Sources

 1. Tik Tok  

    I get most of my news from TikTok. I find myself scrolling on my FYP most days. TikTok is a great place to get news from because you are able to get fast and frequent updates. In addition, it is a great way to get different perspectives from people who are posting about certain topics going on around the world. Many TikTok users share footage from first hand experiences and it is a great way to see different points of view. Lastly, TikTok curates news based on what I am interested in. It adds things to my FYP that I will want to watch and learn about. This is a more entertaining way to get news. 


    I enjoy watching Fox News for several reasons. First, it has a wide reach and influence. Fox News is one of the most watched news networks. There is a reason for that. I feel as if I can trust their facts and learn new things every time I watch it. My parents always watch Fox News and have since I was little. They are the reason I watch it. I like that Fox offers a mix of news and opinion based shows. It gives multiple view points, which I think is very important. Lastly, Fox News is always quick to report on important events happening around the globe. 






3. My Parents 
    I talk to my parents at least once a day on the phone. I always ask them if there are any news updates that they have seen, since I am not always able to keep up with the news. This is beneficial for several reasons. To begin, I trust my parent's perspectives. We agree on most things and have the same view points. My parents were born in a different generation. They offer view points and insights that are interesting to me and great to learn from. They share news with me that they think is important, instead of random things that aren't relevant to what is going on around us. Lastly, hearing news from my parents forces us to have a conversation about it, which furthers my understanding and opinions. 


    Wall Street Journal is a great news source. This has been a trusted news source since 1889. WSJ is a the best place to find economic news. This includes things like stock market, corporate news/insights, trade, global markets, and much more. My parents got me to start watching this news source as I saw them watching it at home. Their facts are very well researched and trust worthy. Not only do they provide facts, but they also provide details. That is very important to know when watching the news. They are known for sharing stories that are being investigated, as well as scandals and government affairs. If you enjoy learning about these things, this is the news source for you!








    I just recently started checking Newsmax for news. I like the conservative aspect to it, in addition to other reasons. They report very current events through a viewpoint that I understand. Newsmax speaks mostly about politics and global affairs. I/m not very big on politics, but when I want to learn more this is where I go. This is a free source online and on cable. That is important for college students. There is no subscription needed. In addition, they feature commentators who give strong viewpoints. This makes debates possible and interesting. All of their stories are recent, relevant, and trustworthy. I find this all to be entertaining. They criticize mainstream media, offering "unfiltered" news.
