In my project, i have completed my interviews with serval people. Two of them are the teenagers that familiar with the New media, that majorly use new media platform to receive message, and the other are the older generations that used to use traditional media and moving on adopting the new media. My major questions are :
1) What do you think the different of new media and traditional media ?
2) What's the advantage of both, and which one you prefer ?
3) What's your consideration when you receive news ?
4) What's the problem that traditional media has that new media can compensate ?
During, the interview some of them has provide some solid examples that to explain their point of view, for example they think that the traditional media platform are lack of numbers, so the news can't be comprehensive, and also they think Hong Kong has serious news filter problem, so that they prefer to receive it in New media, because they have more resources and could hear different side of the opinion, and to understand the incident fully.
2) Preliminary findings – What do you discover up till now? (For example, what are the commonalities amongst the texts/interviews?) How do your findings help you answer your research question?
After the interviews, i discovered that the demand of comprehensive story of teenagers are strong, they have lack of trust from the current serval traditional media platform, also they demand a platform to express their thought, and also be able to discuss with others, we can see the demand of the teenagers from the information are not just the messages itself anymore but also the action they can take from it. It is a huge discovery for me to write about it, because as long as the demand keeps going on, the position of traditional media will keep invading from the new media.
Also they new filter are one of the problem that the interviewers talked most about, so we can see that it is their major concern, we can see people of receiving messages are getting smarter, they would want to get a deeper understanding of what they hear, and the position, attitude of how the media broadcast would also affect the people's thought on the incident.

Dear Adrian, The progress of your project seems fine. There is a lack of the relationship between your preliminary findings to any one of the theoretical concepts that we discussed in class. Uses and gratifications theory is relevant. Please do get a copy of the reading distributed in tutorial which you did not attend last time. Application of concepts is a must in the project.
