A Typical ‘The Crux’ Reader This slideshow gives you an example of the type of person that would read The Crux. To do this I constructed a fake Facebook profile after carrying out a questionaire of potentional readers.
Gathering Reader Identity Details • To find detail about my the typical interests of potential readers of The Crux, I conducted a questionnaire asking about their habits and lifestyles. I gave the questionnaire to young female adults aged 17 – 23 who I know are regarded as intellectual. The results were: • 81% said they read on a regular basis. • 77% said they had plans to or currently attend university. • 64% showed an interest in attending gigs/seeing live performances of music or art. • 55% said they were put off by tabloid magazines. • 3 common television shows came up for favourite shows: Nashville, Big Bang Theory and Friends. • 98% were atheist. • When describing there music taste, 90% said current or mainstream and 1 person said pop and indie.
