Also, one of our questions in our interview is "Do you think that someone who is well-informed about the news has a higher social status?" A question like this is a way to see if people who obtain news regularly has a higher quantity of social status.
The last question is one that has to do with impression management. It questions why a student would obtain their news; for what purpose are they obtaining their news? If a student says he wants to talk about it with their friends, there is probably a higher chance that he might be trying to influence his friends' perceptions about him. He may use the news as a way to "impress" people on how knowledgable/informed he is.
