n order to get people’s opinions about a particular Supreme Court decision a reporter interviewed 30 people who have gathered outside the courthouse waiting for the announcement. The reporter makes sure to question people who have signs expressing a variety of positions on the issue. This is an example of which type of sampling strategy?

This is an example of convenience sampling.

Explanation:

Convenience sampling is also known as accidental or opportunity sampling. All those names represent the way it is carried out. This type of sampling is done by using the part of the population that is close to the person doing the sampling. Basically, the person doing the sampling is at a certain place at a certain time. Then he/she simply draws the sample from anyone who is nearby. In this case, the reporter is outside the courthouse. There are several people there, so he simply interviews them since they are at his convenience - close by and available.
