Observation 6

If I were to incorporate an interview piece into my research project, I would aim to generalize the American public opinion of how other countries most likely reacted to 9/11. I would then compare this to the research I found, probably showing the differences in what we assume other countries felt about the attacks vs what they actually did feel. I hope, and presume I will find a disconnect between the two, showing that American’s might not be as aware of our surroundings as we think we are.

I doubt I will, but if i decide to use this technique in my research project, then I will interview random college students, as most everyone is familiar with the terrorist attacks and can offer an opinion on them. Questions that I would ask would include

1. How would you describe the overall American reaction to the terrorist attacks on September 11th 2001.
2. How do you think the international reaction to the response would differ from our domestic response (if there is any difference) ?
3. What assumptions would make about the media coverage of 9/11 given in
a. Hong Kong, China (Asia)
b. Brazil (South America)
c. Bosques, Spain (Europe)
