Question Wording

Good job Marie Josee and Jennifer, the updated question sounds better! I don’t know if I’m content with the overall list of published questions though. We also need to measure media coverage within the same time frames as the BC elections. This way we can compare the data to see if there is a relationship between media coverage and voter turnout.

I think the questions Ryan published should be fused into something like:

Where do you get your news on BC politics? Check all that apply. 1. Newspapers (e.g. Vancouver Sun, National Post, Metro) 2. Dailies (e.g. Metro, 24) 3. The Internet (e.g. cbc.ca, vancouversun.com, thetyee.ca) 4. Television (e.g. CBC, Global) 5. Social media (e.g. Twitter, Facebook) 6. Other (Please specify)

We should definitely keep:

Based on your answer to the previous question, how often do you use this [/these] form[s] of media? 1. Everyday 2. 2-3 times a week 2. Once a week 3. Once a month 4. Less than once a month

And then we should ask something along the lines of:

Has this increased or decreased since 1997? 1. Increased 2. Increased Slightly 3. Neutral 4. Decreased 5. Decreased Slightly
