My research deals mostly with fact, as opposed to definition. It heavily incorporates statistical data from multiple sources to create an outline of where people read most of their news media. Because both of my sources are both simple statistical analysis of data they are arguments of fact. My source from Pew Research is a survey conducted by the Pew Internet Research Group; they surveyed 3,000 Americans of different backgrounds to understand where most people get their news media. I have another source, The Nielson Research Group, who also did a survey of Americans to discover where people are getting their news. Because their surveys are laid out in simple data-based forms they are arguments of fact. My research is based primarily upon these two sources, it is also data-based, and therefore an argument of fact. My research does not try to define news media, nor what it should encompass, it simply lays out the facts of where people read news and why.
