6. If your answer to question 5 was yes, why yes?

• - To have more of an understanding of the world and current affairs
• - Just think it be better to know what's going on in the world . I watched the news the other day and there had been some tornado somewhere which I didn't have a clue even happened ?
• - I want to be more socially and politically aware as well as develop my own opinions on global subjects.
• - Want to be more aware of the world.
• - Social media algorithms, especially facebook promote fake news more than actual news as it makes them more money as it’s outrageousness gets more engagement
• - Feel like I keep up to date enough but would like more reliable/non biased sources
• - To be more informed to make better decisions
• - Because as I integrate more into society through work I would like to understand what is going on and how it affects me and others. I also believe I learn more from the news.
• - I rely too much on news reaching me naturally (i never actively seek it out) so I’ll always be a little behind on what’s happening. I also don’t pay attention to enough local news and mostly look at global news
• - News is changing every day and it's difficult to keep up with but it should be something watched more regularly in order to keep up with current affairs
• - Increase my understanding of events
• - In the future when covid is over I would because I feel it’s good to know about current affairs. Educating yourself on what’s going on around the world can be important
• - I want to feel more educated around subject matters I feel strongly about but don’t have the facts to back myself up
• - I am always interested in hearing more news, and, or broadening my understanding of current affairs.
• - I want to be more tuned in to what is happening in the world and how certain events will affect me and the people round me.
• - I wish I could get the news from a reliable source that gives an accurate representation off issues of the world and UK. I don't like relying on social media or BBC news because both are inaccurate and biased. I also want to engage in the news more when I don't have a tv but there doesn't seem to be a solution to that other than actively going on news websites which is more effort, but I probably should.
• - I want to become more aware of current issues particular those surrounding education
• - Although I watch BBC News and read the Guardian App, i mainly get news from social media apps. usually the information is opinionated and i don't know what the facts are. sometimes the writer of the information on social media apps exaggerate and i believe the information. I then find out only some of it is true. so it's best to get the news from reliable sources.
• - I want to widen my knowledge, I think it's really important to be informed, and to engage with a diverse range of perspectives. I also feel embarrassed when I can't get involved in conversations about recent events!!
• - It’s best to know what’s going on in the world
• - At the minute, I find it too much with COVID being the main discussion
• - I read to keep myself informed mainly on things that I know will impact me, but I would like to engage more in affairs from other countries that aren’t western.
• - to make sure I'm fully aware and up date as well as increase my commercial awareness
• - I want to be more aware what’s happening in the world
• - I would like to be more informed about world news
• - I like to keep up to date with the world
• - Feel like I never know what's going on
• - Like to keep up to date
• - Sometimes I feel i am out of touch with the world around me and that I dont understand things that are going on.

7. If your answer to question 5 was no, why no?

• -A lot of the news can be biased
• - With the current situation (covid) I’ve found checking the news a lot actually makes me feel more negative and sad, so I avoid it more now and try to only keep up to date where needed
• - The news can be overwhelming and stress inducing, especially during the current climate with coronavirus, brexit, etc. I keep up with the news to the point where I am informed, but I do not want to engage further as it can be quite draining.
• - I think I engage enough . And while it’s good to keep up, it’s also exhausting when everything is so depressing
• - I already spend a lot of time checking on the news in my personal and work time
• - Alot of it is mediated to make you upset or has an agenda
• - I engage with the news a lot, and I’m quite disenfranchised with British news outlets, they’re very right leaning so I like to know what going on but wouldn’t want to become obsessed with the news.
• - I don’t think I’d handle having more bad news in my head at all times
• - I feel that I am already very engaged with the news
• - I already obsessively check it all day!
• - Requires a lot of energy to make see all sides of the story
• - News is mainly just Covid related at the moment. Other things are happening in the world
• - It can be quite overwhelming as it is, but I find keeping up with what's actually happening in the world to be important, so I like to keep a balance of staying aware but not getting too lost in the news when I need to focus sometimes
• - I used to watch the news every day when I worked in a care home, and I used to check it a lot when I stopped in that job. These days it causes me a lot of anxiety because of the covid situation and government incompetence. I prefer to just wait until someone who does check the news tells me about something at the moment
• - I feel as though I receive it enough
• - its depressing
• - news makes my mental health bad
• - I feel like I am already reading about enough news when I look on my phone
• - It’s always negative
• - It can be really overwhelming, I like to keep up but not at the cost of my own mental health. The Happy Newspaper is a great way of keeping in touch with better news because it's a slower pace.
• - I enjoy staying informed but find it somewhat depressing that I can have no influence on the bad news beyond voting (and this is only true for UK based news really). I find too much bad news negatively affects my mood for the day.
• - Too much negativity right now, I see enough on social media to understand what's going on in the world but if I were to read any more it would impact my mental health
• -Although I think it is important to stay updated on the current climate of the world it can become infuriating and depressing to see all the bad things going on. I get very passionate about issues that spills into my mental well-being. So I try to distance myself slightly.
• - Although I think it is important to stay updated on the current climate of the world it can become infuriating and depressing to see all the bad things going on. I get very passionate about issues that spills into my mental well-being. So I try to distance myself slightly.
• - Again, I don’t believe the news is 100% true and majority of the time it’s all bad news and I personally don’t think looking at the news all the time helps the mind.
• - Often reading too much of the news can be pretty negative and not uplifting! Keeping up to date with important information is good but too much news and it gets pretty sad !
• - The news is so depressing and isn't always truthful.
• - I feel well enough Infotmed for my liking
• - It’s constantly negative and never looking at the good in things
• - At the minute, I find it too much with COVID being the main discussion
• - The news to me causes more problems, I believe it is important to stay informed so would watch more news on TV but being a student I only use the Internet to watch things so do not see the news in passing. News on social media to me is incredibly toxic, often being fake news or the comment section being fuelled by hate, arguments or over worrying
• - I feel I already check it a little bit obsessively
• - I like having a balance of news exposure
• - Not the best for mental health, can remind us of the current situation - doesn’t get away from it. Can be unhealthy.
• - I think checking the news too often becomes very toxic, but it's hard to avoid. I'd like the engage with positive news more, but find this more difficult to achieve
• - I feel like I’m already quite tuned in to what’s going on in the world and already stay quite up to date on the news. Although it is a bit ignorant to believe I am aware enough to not engage further.
• - I think I’ve got a good balance of being aware of what is happening in the world and not being overwhelmed by it
• - I do with things that matter for example climate change and things like that however right now due to the excess of news and information we are watching I don’t currently want to engage more.
• - The news can be negative and make me feel sad about the world, unless it is good news stories, it always leaves me feeling worried and hollow
• - It’s negative
• - I always find the news to be very depressing and grim, the stories are always negative, and the positive stories are barely covered or not mentioned at all. Hearing more from news or dooms scrolling just makes me feel down.
• - It currently really dampens my mood, I always make sure I am aware of the main things but I really don’t enjoy watching it. 

9. Why do you trust these outlets?

• They align with my political views and aren't tabloids (BBC, The Guardia, The Independent)
• I don't (none)
• Seems more ‘real’ and seems to be trusted by others, where as many newspapers get hate for being false news (BBC News)
• They align with my politics 
• - bbc Cus it's a tv channel , the others because I feel like they're for more older people so more trust worthy
• - They take their jobs seriously, they advertise themselves as journalists. (BBC News, The Guardian)
• - Feel like they give a much more equal view on politics and issues (BBC News, The Guardian)
• - Channel 4 is very informative and is always straight to the point
• - Not really FULLY any. But these two more than bbc. Less likely to be in Tories pockets, have more of a variety of views despite being predominantly left (The Guardian, The Independent)
• - Their analysis of headlines tends to match what I know to be true. They don't tend to post gossip stories. (BBC News, The Guardian)
• - Tried to pick what seems less agenda based such as BBC being supported by conservatives so I don't engage with it
• - Don’t seem as biased (The Telegraph, The Guardian)
• - Seem to be reliable journalism (BBC News, The Guardian)
• - The Guardian, kind of, because they get a range of journalists and have less off an agenda than other news outlets
• - A number of the mentioned news outlets have been academically shunned for incorrect information, others are sometimes politically 'loaded' in their choice of columnists and articles and so do not share an unbiased opinion. These also typically do not align with my political views. (BBC News, The Guardian)
• - I like to be informed from several sides and they both seem less sensational than some of the others (BBC News, The Guardian)
• - I don’t trust right wing sources
• - Grew up with them through my parents consuming that media and I trust their judgement/agree with their outlooks. Baso just continued with that. (BBC News, The Guardian)
• - I know that the BBC tries to stay impartial. I like that!
• - All outlets have an audience therefore news deemed irrelevant to this audience isn't provided. (BBC NEws, The Telegraph, The Guardian, None fully)
• - They just seem more legit, the language they use indicates a bit more research behind the news (BBC News, The Telegraph)
• - They give seemingly accurate news
• - Focus on factual information, Guardian has interesting content (BBC News, The Guardian)
• - I have the most experience with them. I think the BBC can be pretty biased but it's pretty neutral compared to some like the daily mail.
• - Left wing
• - Less Dodgy than others
• - not super right wing messes
• - Always been told they're the reliable news sources (BBC News, The Telegraph, The Guardian, The Independent) 
• - They seem less right thing than the others
• - They seem to be the most up to date and reliable when it comes to news. They don’t write about gossip or conspiracies like The Sun and The Daily Mail might. However there are obvious biased views with these news outlets as well which you need to be aware of sometimes (BBC News, The Guardian, The Telegraph, The Independent, Sky News)
• - I don’t trust Tabloids such as the sun and don’t care about celeb news at all, Daily Mail can seem to be racist/ pushing too far a right wing agenda sometimes
• - Traditional I guess, less likely to spread news for ‘views’ but actually spread news for understanding (BBC News, The Telegraph, The Guardian)
• - I trust the guardian more so than BBC, but I still regard them both as objective observers to an extent. However, I don’t normally rely on one source of information to trust it. For example, if I read a statistic, I normally follow up on the study and check it’s significance
• - They tend to be the ones where I don't feel like the whole article is crap. They're the ones I come across most often on social media so I suppose probably because people I know read and share these too. (BBC News, The Guardian, The Independent) 
• - I think they seem the most impartial / least swayed by the agendas of their uber-rich owners (The Guardian, The Independent)
• - NA
• - No extreme headlines for clickbait and more fitting to my political views. BBC news usually has a more unbiased presentation based on facts etc (BBC News, The Guardian, The Independent)
• - I don’t know the legitimacy with a lot of the outlets. To me these seem the most neutral and not leaning too far to the left or right politically.
• - BBC news has been a long standing outlet for a long time and tries to remain politically impartial to issues. Daily mail and the sun are known for reporting nastily on celebrities and peoples bodies and I don’t agree with that. They just report on what sells rather than the facts.
• - I don't trust any because they all feel biased and don't give a full accurate picture. But I may be wrong, I haven't looked into it too much.
• - More broadsheet as opposed to tabloids who are renowned for making stories out of nothing/not being the most trustworthy of sources
• - I don’t personally trust most news stations as they’re bias towards their target audience and will twist an article to please whoever’s reading or to just be controversial.
• - I think they produce reliable news
• - I have been told bbc news is the most reliable
• - Because people tell me they are the only ones to trust
• - I like to read less bias platforms. I'm politically left wing so I don't engage with any right leaning newspapers. I am strongly opposed to the Sun newspaper eg. (Hillsborough disaster, page 3) as it was founded on 'shock factor', right wing misinformation, and has a history of prejudice.
• - Because I do.
• - They are all biased in there own way
• - Reputation
• - Reliable sources of information
• - I’m not quite sure
• - I’ve found others can exaggerate stories to create audience attention but on the whole these tend to say it how it is.
• - Less opinion biased
• - I feel like the news on the TV feels more official, with it being live especially.
• - The fact that they don't have shareholders/ owners makes me see them as more editorially unbiased
• - They seem to cover a lot of general topics across loads of areas
• - Misinformation is prevelant and often each outlet has their own ideas of matters at hand
• - Less gossip based, more factual
• - Family have told me and who writes them
• - My parents trust them and they seem less to do with gossip
• - I trust BBC more than others, but do think you can never really trust any news outlets you see, you have to take most things as an opinion. I feel that BBC are more fact-based than other outlets
• - The guardian seems very objective and doesn’t seem to have a set agenda unlike other news outlets such as tabloids. The BBC news doesn’t seem quite so objective but i trust it enough to give accurate reportings on world events.
• - I grew up watching CNN with the family. Their tone is more left wing and I am a registered Democrat so I tend to agree with them more. I don’t believe in conspiracies against the news but I totally see that even though they say they're “unbiased” they do have biased opinions. Which is why I dip my toes into Conservative news sometimes (but always come out with a bad taste in my mouth)
• - Usually relatively accurate and balanced but still compare information further if needed
• - Read and used by people I know and trust
• - BBC is not always neutral but I believe it is mostly reliable. And the guardian is more left wing
• - No particularly good reason, other than they seem to be well established, and I have a general preference for the broadsheet style.
• - I don't all media is biased
• - It is a main stream platform
• - Cuz my parents do
• - Some of the others are tory owned
• - I think they give more neutral opinions or comments on news stories, rather than giving their own opinion on what they think is right or wrong, good or bad or if it is a news story concerning a person, they don't give their opinion on them so you can judge for yourself rather than enforcing their opinion?
• - Checked my many people
• - I dont trust any in particular as I feel that a lot of news is warped

11. Why yes no maybe (answer to q.10)

• MAYBE:I'm unsure what the benefits of a paid subscription are over what I can already access for free
• MAYBE: It all depends on if the information is reliable
• YES: I think it’s important to know what’s going on around the world, especially when it’s reliable information
• YES: I would consider it because a lot of news can be biased and if this was a more neutral worldwide perspective, I think it could be very beneficial.
• NO: It's free online anyway so don't see the need for one specially
• YES: Yes, to allow myself to check the news and be more socially aware.
• YES: Feel like there is a lot within news platforms that goes either showing in detail a useless news point and not showing enough of what is going on in the world, or more of what we can do as people to contribute to issues such as global warming or others in a positive way.
• MAYBE: I’m already satisfied with channel 4 but would be open to legible other news outlets
• MAYBE: Reliability is subjective I guess. So it’s good to get different viewpoints. But it would be good to get facts shown without a lense on them.
• YES: I already do because you get more detailed and relevant stories from a subscription
• YES: Reliability
• YES: Want a source I can trust
• NO: Can get news for free from various services
• YES:I did to the guardian for a while and it’s a good way to get news quickly. But unsubscribed cause Twitter does the same thing
• NO:There's already a vast amount of free news. I believe that all news should be free, reliable, open and global and that any which isn't, shouldn't exist. Making people pay for news may increase the inequality gap as only those with sufficient disposable income can access what is fundamentally an educational resource.
• NO: I can already get enough news for free
• MAYBE: Finances
• MAYBE: Not really a priority when I have a student budget, when I can access the news for free in other ways :)I also don’t like to commit to these kinds of things, not sure why.
• YES: If this open news application allowed you to engage with all news. A bit like a central comparison site for all other outlets?
• MAYBE: Because it would have to be affordable and worth it. It would need to also be visually well designed, especially if it’s print based. If it’s online based, I would want it to have a notification system set up so I can be reminded to check it (not email, bc i never check that)
• NO: Why pay for something thats already free?
• NO: Know where to find reliable news for free
• MAYBE: Depends on the price and if it was truly neutral, not another "neutral" news that reports selectively to make certain people/parties/groups look better or worse under the guise of neutrality
• NO: Can’t afford it as a very poor student
• NO: news should be free and accessible to all
• MAYBE: i have apple news already
• MAYBE:To keep up with current affairs, but the news is pretty accessible already and free so why pay for it?
• MAYBE: If it where reasonably priced then it would be good to hear reliably about whats happening around the world
• YES: Need a news outlet that isn’t so biased and has an open mind about certain topics
• MAYBE: I do read the news a lot but unsure if I should commit to a subscription or which paper to do so far, BBC news also does plenty without
• YES: I have a subscription to the week, we do have at home but it’s expensive and hard to find time to read
• MAYBE: Access to information is essentially free via the internet, so if I’m committed enough to find something out I normally can myself. Although, a reliable and open form of news would be a welcomed relief and should be supported.
• YES: Depends what sort of news it covers, need some good news too
• MAYBE: It would be interesting to know whats going on in different areas of the world when everything isn't so overwhelming
• MAYBE: I'm unsure what the selling point would be right now
• NO: I already get enough, I can form my own opinions from the news that I read. I have a lot of discernment anyway and not easily swayed by headlines
• MAYBE: I honestly don’t know how often I would read it and I’m broke.
• YES: It’s hard to know what outlets to trust and what facts are valid instead of opinion based.
• MAYBE: Depends on how much it costs. But I likely would yes.
• NO: News is so readily available for free I would rather not have to pay for it
• MAYBE: You’ll never guarantee for a news to be 100% true as a lot of people higher up in power can bribe news outlets to not print a story or print it in a way which makes them look good even if it’s not the truth. I believe that even if a news station started as 100% true and unbiased that they would eventually become corrupt
• NO: I would rather get my news for free and save money
• YES: Then you know it’s not fake!
• NO: I'd rather get the news from BBC News on TV bc it's free!
• NO: Don't want to spend money on news.
• YES: I think a subscription would encourage me to engage with the news more!
• YES: If it truly was it would be convenient and stop me having to double check all sources and stories
• MAYBE: Can get info online
• MAYBE: It depends on the content and what it offers
• MAYBE: If I had the money maybe
• YES: If I was able to know that what I was reading was wholly reliable I’d feel more comfortable reading and trusting it.
• NO: I like to be informed in what I am interested in or what is current, I can research that myself and feel having a larger consumption of news would make me feel more negative and also just infuriate me
• YES: I'd like to contribute and support the journalism I like reading
• YES: Keeps you on top of what’s current
• MAYBE: It's hard to be trustworthy
• NO: Don’t have enough disposable income
• YES: Yes - lots can be unreliable and biased
• MAYBE: I’d like to think I’d read it but chances are I wouldn’t read it enough to get my money’s worth
• YES: I think knowing news is reliable (however unsure how you would assure this) would make it a lot easier to digest, and would save lots of arguments surrounding news you see on social media
• MAYBE: Depends on the price I think.
• YES: I think it’s important to know about what’s going on not just in your own country but globally. Also I like the idea of having actual unbiased news (I think the Skimm does a similar service?)
• MAYBE: Would need to consider what made it reliable and if so if it was worth the subscription cost
• NO: Believe reliable news should be accessible to everyone at no cost
• MAYBE: Could be helpful but also I sometimes get fed up with the news as it’s so negative
• YES: It would be good to stay informed!
• YES: ?
• MAYBE: Cost
• NO: Can get info for free
• MAYBE: I tend to find the news focuses on the negative, no matter which outlet it's from. I'd maybe consider a subscription to a more optimistic or insightful and positive news site
• NO: I trust BBC
• MAYBE: I dont feel that I need to pay to see news when I can watch it on the TV if I wanted to. However if it was news of interest and not mainstream news then maybe.

REVIEW:

Reasons for yes: - Good to have reliable information - Important to know what's going on around the world - Keep up to date - Some people feel as though when they pay for it it will be more reliable

Reasons for no: - Already satisfied with what you can access for free

- Feel news should be available for free

Reasons for maybe: - Would need to be better than what you get for free - Would consider if less negative - Would need to know it's reliable to purchase - Depends of price - Would want there to be good news too

11. What would make you more likely to purchase a news subscription?

• It would have to be considerably be better than the free service
• If it was reliable and well designed
• Easy to understand information, not too much writing as this can feel overwhelming, good graphics/ type to keep it interesting
• Not over priced, potentially student discount. Reliable and non-biased sources, that the news supplier was able to evidence.
• Discount / freebies ?
• A discount, articles included that appealed to me, weren't necessarily all about serious or negative topics. Perhaps if there were more album reviews or I could learn about jargon/a system I didn't understand.
• Consistent updates, equal view points and easy to read.
• Less descriptive writing and more to the point
• Facts
• - Price. One thing I struggle with is the Economist is great but very expensive. Tortoise media is similar. Both have free options that make paying for more a difficult decision. - Options for how to consume the news - I like having the option with the Economist to read a print copy, read on the app or listen to the podcast/them reading out loud.
• Cheaper and information on their agenda
• Something easily understandable, reliable and honest
• If it truly seems exceptional to other options (fun cartoons wouldn't hurt either)
• Not much now really. Honest journalism would.
• If it was through a hypothecated tax based format and the news subscription subsequently applied to a whole country.
• If I knew they had a good easy to use website/service with quality articles
• Cheap, varied content, trustworthy
• Lower costs/if I had more disposable income
• More money!
• Evidence of non-bias, personalisation
• Affordability, well designed, consistency and a variety of news (serious stuff mixed with more lighthearted stuff)
• Not sure
• Super cheese
• See last answer
• It wouldn’t be something I would do
• horoscopes / quizes
• cheaper than apple news
• If there were clear benefits that appealed to me about paying for a subscription
• If it where cheap
• If it was clear that the outlet wouldn’t have a biased opinion and just cares about giving true reports about news events
• Nothing really, I would be more tempted to get a subscription to the economist or similar tbf
• Cheap and reliable
• Both the reliability and validity of its sources, and a wide berth of views/studies allowing one to form some objective understanding on the information presented. Moreover, a conscious news outlet that helps organise/provide assistance for people they conduct their articles on
• Interactive? Some how more engaging
• If it was designed well and the printed side of things was really considered - I'm a sucker for nice printed goods! I think if I also followed the writers on social media and got to see them beyond just the articles they write.
• - Choice (or filter) of what subject I'd opt in to see (Science, Movies, Literature, etc.) - The app or platform it is presented on being easy to use and aesthetically pleasure
  - Style of writing and honest titles. I understand clickbait titles are necessary oto grab people on social media, but if I'm voluntarily suscribed to to a news platform I'd rather the titles give an genuine reflection of the content
  - Hypocritically, I think the more left-leaning the polictal content is the more likely I would be to remain subscribed. Everyone likes to have their views validation
• I wouldn't purchase one, don't think it should be paid for
• A news source that isn’t just covering tragedy and politics. There is more going on in the world than that.
• Good graphics, clear facts and statements and news about important issues rather than celebrity lifestyle
• Knowing that it is a reliable source and the price being reflective of that. But also not being expensive.
• Not a lot to be honest, as a student, paying a news subscription would definitely not sit highly on my to do list
• If I looked at the news more
• if it was a cheaper price
• If it was printed! Being able to touch something your subscribed to is always good! Not just an app
• if it's free
• If it was news on relatable and helpful subjects.
• If it was in app form, and if it had 'mini' ariticles - very brief, to the point, clear and condensed bursts of information.
• Affordable price
• Happy news
• If it was useful, not biased and had a range of different things on it
• If it was unique and. It like the ones I can access for free
• If others I trusted had it and if it had a track record of reporting correctly and without bias.
• If it wasn't as expensive and if it offered a balanced view
• If you could tailor what news you receive, what sort of news you are interested in. This is something often whilst watching TV I get irritable at as they tend to have a 'happy' story to cap it off on a positive note, but I don't really care that music is helping a man with dementia, Id want to know what is actually happening in the world that demands attention and action, something to be educated upon.
• Having more money
• If it was something personalised to topics I want to keep up with
• I don't quite know
• If I consistently read one news outlet
• Cheapness and reputation
• If it were very cheap maybe
• If I was certain it would be reliable? I think having a subscription and a specified "time and place" to get news would stop me from checking multiple sites and stop me from checking the news as often, but also think that people would HAVE to be certain the news is reliable (which most people will not believe) to use something like a subscription and not also check news elsewhere as well
• What content and also frequency (how often will I get sent news?)
• Affordable, unbiased, and obviously - fun graphics
• How and what information is provided, if it aligns with what I want, if it had some good reviews
• A small subscription fee
• If you could opt in/out for hearing about certain things
• If it was cheap, and the stories were (a) concise, (b) non-biased, (c) accurate and (d) relevant
• Nope
• A mixed batch of news from different cultures and from different perspectives, not just rich journalists
