News headline survey, Approx. 15 minutes. - $1.50

Good

Pending

$10.91 / hour

00:08:15 / completion time

Pros

They ask at the end how long it took you to complete, which I assume is out of a willingness to understand how they're paying, which I appreciated.

EDIT: Responded positively to my email about the missing survey code after just a few minutes.

Cons

Includes some kind of upsetting news headlines (some falsified) - violence to children, some other disturbing violent content.
Photo of a syringe. Another photo with some blood on a deceased sea creature.
No survey code appeared at the end; emailed the requester about this. (EDIT: Responded back!)

Approved

$3.44 / hour

Pros

Edit (1/24/22): Looking at the 5 other reviews for this HIT, it does not seems as if anyone else recorded the possibility of a bonus. It has been so long, I don't remember this HIT and I only had a penny for a placeholder. Instead of marking this as unpaid, I am removing the bonus all together.

However, since I have sent dozens of inquires about the bonus with no answer, I am marking communication to reflect.

Cons

Writing.

Bonus op, but doubt it will make up for the dismal pay. YMMV.

News Headlines survey. Approx. 15 minutes. - $1.50

Unrated

Approved

$14.03 / hour

00:06:25 / completion time

Pros

Unintentionally funny. It had a bunch of headlines that talked about things like Trump crying in a garden, someone wanting to erase 4.6 billion years of history, etc. The article headlines had to be fake. That, or I don't check the news often enough.

Cons

If you're a political zealot, some headlines may make you angry.
