Radio

When looking at the two sites NPR and 106.1 there were a bunch of differences between the two. I would say that the NPR website would attract an older crowd looking for more news worthy stories over the world versus the other website is defiantly attracting a more younger crowd. 106.1 has all the famous people like Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus, and many more. It more talks about their concert dates and what's the latest gossip with them. NPR articles are more calm and focus on different topics like actual news going on in the world and upcoming events that still show the entertainment side but it does it in a more tasteful way than 106.1 does. The articles in NPR have a way more calming effect when you read them and pictures posted are tastefully done versus when you look at 106.1 websites where the pictures on there are more riska. A lot of the pictures look like quick snap shots and where not actually planned pictures.

I feel that talk radio should be more liberal and it shouldn't just have one opinion on certain topics. Under the First Amendment it gives people the freedom of speech and every single person has their own views and opinions on issues and it should defiantly be heard. Nothing is ever one sided and radio stations need to start gathering different audiences so that there are more liberal stations versus so many conservative ones. They say that the radio shows will try to persuade you to think one thing but I don't think it should persuade you to just think one thing it should make you think about so many different things and peoples different sides and views on topics.
