▶ Your Answer : Some people think that a person do not have to have information from several news sources to know many things. However, in my opinion, it is better to get information using a variety of news references. First of all, people can get much information from many sources. In addition, people can obtain more accurate data.
To begin with, people can acquire much information by using various news sources. People cannot be well-informed with one news reference because it has limited data. However, it is possible to obtain comprehensive information, if people refer diverse sources. For example, according to a survey conducted by UCLA’s research department, about 80 percent of participants reported that they were able to get a lot of information when they searched it by using several news references. They also mentioned that much information was beneficial because they could use it on their tasks and it helped them be well-informed. On the other hand, they could have only little information when they used one or two news sources. As a result, it is evident that people should search information from various news sources to be learned.
On top of that, people can have more accurate data when they refer a variety of news sources. There is a strong case for having wrong information using few sources. However, with many references, people can find out wrong data and search more right information. For instance, when I was in high school, I had an assignment about Korean political issues and referred one news source. I did my assignment based on the information searched from the source but I got a low grade. I asked my teacher, Mr.Kim, why I got a low score and he said that the information that I used was biased and not accurate. Thus, when I received another assignment, I referred more than six news sources to do it. Consequently, I got a high score and learned that it is important to use many sources to be well-informed.
To sum up, people can get a lot of information and accurate data when they refer diverse new sources. In this regard, I believe that to be learned, people should search information from varied new references. |
