My Top 5 Sources of News

1-The Baynet:

The Baynet is a local news source for where I'm from. I am from a very small county, Calvert County, in Southern Maryland. The Baynet is a website that covers news in Southern Maryland. This includes Calvert, St. Mary's, Charles, Anne Arundel, and Prince George's Counties. The news covers everything you need to know: the government, local sports (college, high school, middle school, etc.), crime/criminals, obituaries, etc. I grew up using the Baynet to learn about local news, and still use it today.

2-NFL on FOX:

NFL on FOX is a TV show produced by Fox Sports about NFL happenings. I first found NFL on FOX on TikTok. They would post clips of games while the hosts gave their thoughts on what happened. I became more interested with NFL on FOX once the playoffs came around. They were able to explain it in a way that made sense.

3-NBC:

NBC is the news my family would watch in the morning before school. When I was little, the only thing I concerned myself with was the weather. However, when I got older, I became more interested with everything else they would report on. My family and I had little inside jokes about NBC news. For example, my mom would joke that she wanted to marry one of the hosts. Because this is the news I grew up with, it is often the news I will watch on TV if I happen to want to.

4-ESPN:

I am a huge Ravens fan. My dad is from Baltimore, his mom is a huge Ravens fan, which made him a huge Ravens fan, and therefore made me a huge Ravens fan. When I was younger, ESPN was on all twenty-four hours on football Sundays. It was the only thing we were allowed to watch. Now that I'm older and understand football better, I choose to watch ESPN on TikTok to get important information about the football world.

5-COURIER:

Similar to NFL on FOX, the first time I came across COURIER was on TikTok. Because I am part of a younger generation, I do not enjoy watching news on TV. Though I use TikTok for funny videos, another one of my main purposes for downloading the app was to know what was going on around me. I have learned that COURIER does this in a fun way, and they were created specifically to reach younger generations that use TikTok and Instagram daily. Additionally, COURIER has similar views as I do, which I enjoy seeing.
