Primary research

For my primary research, I will be creating a questionnaire which will include appropriate questions that teenagers from 13- 19 years old will fill out. This will help me get accurate information of the media language that teenagers will prefer for the newspaper.
I will also create open and close ended questions to make sure the answers on the questionnaires are accurate.
Here are the questions that I will use for my questionnaire:

1. What is your gender?  Male or Female

2. How old are you? 13 - 15, 16 - 17, 18 - 19

3. How do you prefer to receive the news?  TV, radio, phone, internet, post

4. Do you read the newspaper? Yes, No

5. How often do you read newspapers? Often, not often, weekly, never

6. What attracts you to read newspapers? pictures, gossip, girls, boys, sports, tabloids, nothing
