For my fifth artefact, I want to move on slightly to look at consumer perception of citizen journalism in terms of trustworthiness and credibility.
My plan involves gathering a selction of news websites; half of which will be professional news websites and half of which will be citizen journalist websites. I will present participants with a 'snapshot' of each of the websites, including a screenshot and a brief description.
I will then ask participants questions about the various sites, such as how they would rate each of them for trustworthiness and credibility based on their experiences and/or the snapshots I provided.
My intention is for this artefact to provide an understanding of the general perception of citizen journalist websites compared to professional news websites.
