Interview summary

Out of my research i found that most 17-18 year olds do not read or are interested in local newspapers, for the main reason that the stories included do not interest this age group. Many of them said if  the newspaper was to do with sports, celebrities or fashion they would be more interested in the local newspaper in their area. When I asked if they would be interested in a local newspaper if it was aimed towards there interests, half of them said they would be interested and the other half not. I feel that this age group has it set in there mind that local newspapers are boring and include uninteresting stories, which is why they feel even a newspaper being made to match there interests would not be appealing.
