RESEARCH SCENARIO, PART 1

To gain sufficient information for a story, interviews with people whom have witnessed the passing of the content you wish to ascertain are the backbone of research. Of course, the event's subjects aren't always reliable, and perceive a subject differently. To more accurately use them, ask questions that pertain to the background or necessity of the subject in question instead of their opinion. Citing likely sources, especially the ones that were mentioned in interviews can help a story. Within the confines of science, a little more research is needed to report reliably. Up-to-date published books are generally more accurate than online sources. It's imperative to manipulate the instigator of the incident (If there is one available) into being more comfortable telling you their side.
