What are you more likely to watch?

Question

A Presidential speech (such as the Oath of Office or the State of the Union) or a news brodcast regarding the Presidents decisions (such as fox news or CNN)?

I am doing a media speech for my communications class. You help is very much appriciated.

Answer 1

I would rather watch the Presidential speech as it is better to get to know the policy straight from the horse's mouth.

Answer 2

I would watch an important speech (like the state of the union or the oath) over CNN (I don't watch Fox). But the President (not just this president) is on TV making speeches so much that I would more likely watch CNN during most of his speeches.

Answer 3

I don't watch the state of the union speech I think it is all a the B/S which ever party is in power wants you to hear.
I hate watching the news about a presidents decision because the reporters will give you there spin on the subject
I like to and try to watch press conferences they seem to be the best way to get the real answer
if the ? is to hard they seem to squirm away from the subject more
or you can tell from there body language the person's true feelings.

Answer 4

Well I would think that most would be more likely to watch a Presidential speech because alot of TV stations scrap what was on and tune into it. In other words when a Presidential speech is on you don't have a whole lot else to choose from.

Answer 5

The Presidential speech.

Answer 6

The presidential speech; that way I can make up my own mind about what his intentions are instead of having the "talking heads" try to tell me what he meant and failing miserably...

Answer 7

I would rather watch the pundants talk about it because the way speeches are written these days you almost need a translator to understand them.

Answer 8

The actual speech. The diatribe afterwords makes me nuts.

Answer 9

I watch the event itself. there's no such thing as 'News' anymore.

Answer 10

I would rather watch paint dry than to watch any of those.
