With technology being something we see and consume on a daily basis it is a great resource for many things such as seeing the news. Cheddar News is a website and live streaming network which provides news for the latest of what’s going on, science, politics, culture, technology, business, and sports. This website consists of seven authors with links that you can click and learn more about the author with many credible backgrounds such as graduates from University of Michigan, UCLA, etc. They also come from big organization backgrounds, for example CNBC.

What’s the Websites Purpose

The website is organized when you first open it with the latest stories and also the featured stories. It also includes on the bottom of the title of the article how many hours ago it was posted. You can scroll to the bottom of the page where it has the about us page. In the first paragraph Cheddar News states “We feed our viewers’ curiosity about what’s next with live news and original shows covering the people, ideas and innovations that are shaping their world. Weekday news covers the latest in business, culture, media, technology and innovation. And our original shows offer our viewers the opportunity to explore more and take a deeper dive into topics they find interesting and relevant”.​​ This paragraph shows how they talk about the current news in different points of topics.

Who is the Intended Audience?

In this website the intended audience is for every age group that wants to look for the latest stories to use. It’s easy to navigate and covers every type of news as they even stated in their “about us” section. They cover the latest news,politics ,science, technology,sports so this website can interest a lot of audiences. This website also provides a unique way of showing some of their articles by playing a video from their live news coverage. This could interest an audience for those who think watching and listening is more interesting to them than reading.

Are the authors credible

The website consists of seven authors coming from many backgrounds. They all come from previous times working from big companies. For example the ones mentioned are CBS,E News, and CNBC all credible companies. All the authors come from credible educational backgrounds such as UCLA, Georgetown, University of Colorado etc. The authors are very useful and reliable for the information you will see on the website. Education is very important as a way to evaluate credibility from the authors because if they learned from their education backgrounds about how to become a writer and how to write articles the right way free from certain bias. Educational backgrounds are important also because if a writer didn’t go to college some readers can become uncertain of the material.

Do they Report About Issues such as Racism and Stereotypes?

This website does in fact report current social issues and include everything and doesn’t ignore anything. In the Cheddar News segment Hispanic and Latino Representation in Films “Mauricio Mota, Co-President Wise Entertainment, joined Cheddar News to discuss new data that shows that Hispanics and Latinos continue to be marginalized in popular movies”. This is an example on how Cheddar News does pay attention to the issue of Latino stereotypes in television and how they are very marginalized. Maurico Mota provided a solution by stating they should hire more Latino writers to tell the story of someone from their community the true way.

Are their news articles reliable ?

The site’s main news page is easily organized with the latest stories. The site’s articles are written very cleanly with no errors and break up the paragraphs as well as you’re not reading a long essay which would be boring for many readers including myself. The important sentences and words include a hyperlink which you could press which leads you to another website crediting where they got their sources and quotes. For their articles they usually will use the same source for the article and source it after their quotes or in the hyperlinks for the important wording as well.

The websites they use for sources are very credible, for example Associated Press News. Wikipedia states “The Associated Press is an American non-profit news agency headquartered in New York City. Founded in 1846, it operates as a cooperative, unincorporated association. It produces news reports that are distributed to its members, U.S. newspapers and broadcasters”. Cheddar also uses quotes from first hand witnesses of the topic they discuss in the article. The website is reliable for news and credible as they state their sources, add links to go to their sources, add links to learn more about the author, and lastly use and source their quotes for their article.

Some examples of stories that they have written are mostly recent stories and topics around the world for example “Hurricane Aftermath & Nfl Concussion Fallout: What you Need 2Know”. This shows how the article speaks on the big news and current stories. This appeals to the audience as mostly everyone is interested in what’s going on in their world, country, and city. The website organizes it perfectly so you come across the latest news as that is what you see first when you open the website.
