What do you call it in English when a newspaper asks five random people in the street a question? It does not have to be five people, but you get the idea. I hope.
Generally when a radio or TV does it it's either for humor or authenticity flavor in terms of reactions, a paper is more likely to do it as an excuse to use stuff they wouldn't be able to print themselves without scornful comments of bias or low-brow.
When I learned the Onion is a work of fiction I realized my understanding of the man on the streets political views was badly skewed.
