Imagine that you are looking for the latest news about a national disaster such as a hurricane. list the pros and cons of getting your news from a) an independent blogger and b) a mainstream daily newspaper. then choose which you would prefer and explain why.

The only pro is that you will know that there is a hurricane on its way but the con is that there is no news channel that is viewing the hurricane that is arriving.

Also a mainstream daily newspaper and independent blogger are not usual go to sources, but I would prefer a daily newspaper over a independent blogger any day when looking for the latest news about a national disaster because newspapers are published daily as for independent bloggers are technically not reliable daily sources.
