Digging Deeper

Throughout my research, I have found many popular and scholarly sources on my subject in online newspapers, online news sites and journalist articles concerning the negative response to Russia because of the Russian/Ukrainian relations concerning the Maiden revolution. The Maiden events definitely have influence on how the rest of the world perceives Russia and the Olympics in Sochi. On the actual topic of the Sochi Olympics scandals I have also had much luck with access to online material, as these are all events currently in the world news spotlight.

I started my research on Google to see what scandals have been mentioned and what other things are generally being said overall about my topic's key-words like Ukrainian Revolution 2014 and Sochi Olympics scandals. Then I started looking up legitimate news sites and newspaper websites for circulating news. Also, I went to Google Scholar to look up scholarly information.
