Analysis:

We chose this as our running order and included these stories due to the questionnaire results from earlier. Many enjoyed international stories; however because our task was for a local radio we only chose one story and it was the Sony Hacking/ Interview film as we thought this could still affect our viewers due to potential cinema changes. As well as this we chose 3 local stories, as our viewers enjoyed celebrity gossip we mentioned Benedict Cumberbatch's wedding taking place on the Isle of Wight. The Isle of Wight Festival interests our target audiences age group and the Ice Rink is also more targeted at a younger age; however also including slight political aspects. We then decided to include 3 local sports stories as our audience enjoyed sports and achievement as well as scandals. The 3 most popular Island sports are Football, Rugby and Swimming for our audiences age group. Therefore we varied the positivity and negativity of the stories so that they stayed interested throughout the news bulletin. Final the majority said they wanted weather and so put that in last so that they had something to look forward to, making it more of an informal report and keeping the audiences hopes up.
