Summarize : A news story's format normally adheres to a certain structure in order to effectively deliver information to readers or viewers. It comprises of a number of essential components that aid in providing a succinct and interesting summary of the story. The headline, which offers a succinct and attention-grabbing title and highlights the primary idea of the piece, comes first. The lead, also known as the opening paragraph, comes after the title and seeks to grab the reader by giving them the most crucial details, such as the who, what, when, where, why, and how of the narrative. The article's body, which digs into the details and includes pertinent information, quotes, and expert opinions, usually comes after the lead. The story's body gives readers a thorough understanding of the subject by providing context, background knowledge, and corroborating evidence. It might also have a few more paragraphs listed in decreasing order of significance. The article may conclude with a paragraph that underlines any lingering ramifications or future events, summarizes the main ideas, or both. Last but not least, news articles frequently end with a byline that acknowledges the journalist or reporter who wrote the piece and may also contain pertinent links or references for additional reading.

Reflection : The audience's perception of news story structure has a significant impact on how information is delivered to and received by them. News articles frequently have a set framework that seeks to provide readers a thorough overview of the events while keeping their interest. The format frequently starts with an attention-grabbing headline that piques the reader's curiosity and provides a brief summary of the plot. The lead follows, which is a succinct and captivating introduction that sums up the main points of the narrative. The news story's main body then digs further into the specifics, offering data, quotations, and pertinent elements to provide the reader a complete picture of the subject. It is usual to use an inverted pyramid structure, where the most relevant and newsworthy information is offered first and then less significant elements are presented afterwards. This makes it possible for readers to understand the key details even if they don't read the full piece. Journalists work to portray several perspectives and viewpoints, offering a balanced picture of the subject matter, in order to retain impartiality and credibility. A news report ends with a concluding paragraph that may list the main points, speculate on probable future events, or give a more comprehensive overview of the subject at hand. In general, news story structure acts as a foundation for effective communication, ensuring that crucial information is communicated clearly, succinctly, and with the greatest impact possible.

Summarize :

What makes news different from other forms of writing?

·         It is accurate. Reporters pay close attention to detail when gathering facts and details.

·         It is concise. News is written as concisely and tightly as possible.

·         It is in Active Voice: o The best stories contain a single dominant theme and use the subject-verb-direct object structure. o The noun is concrete, referring to specifics. o Verbs are vivid, showing exact action.

·         It is clear. The reporter must understand the event first, and then write about it in a clear, precise, logical simple language. If the reporter is confused about the event, the writing will be confusing also.

·         It is relevant. The reporter selects the most important quotes, illustrations, anecdotes and facts.

·         Opinion is attributed. All information that cannot be proven is attributed to the source of the material.

·         Sources are identified. Reporters should identify sources by name, title or other description. Anonymous sources are not acceptable, except in rare instances where privacy issues are at stake.

·         It is fair and balanced. All sides of the story are given their say and are treated without favouritism.

·         It is objective. It is written in third person and without editorial comment by the reporter.

·         It is true. The reporter must find the truth among the facts, statements and denials. Reporters must seek to tell the latest version of the truth. As more facts come to light, the truth will change.

The common news elements are the following:

Proximity: This has to do with location. If the event is happening close by, it will impact your readers more than if it is happening across town, or across the world, all other considerations being equal. A dance at your school, for instance, is more newsworthy than a dance at another school.

Prominence: This has to do with how well known the people involved in your story are. If the person or persons are well known to your readers, the story will impact your readers more than a similar story involving people they do not know.

Timeliness: If something is happening NOW, it has more impact than something that happened yesterday or last week. Often, the most recent development is the feature of the story.

Consequence: If the impact of an event on your readers is major, they want to know all about it. For instance, they might not care that a particular street is being shut down for repairs, until it is brought to their attention that this will reroute the major portion of the traffic into their residential areas. This will affect them in a significant way, and they will want to know about it.

Human interest: If a situation makes you angry, sad, happy or overjoyed, it contains the news element of human interest. If there is conflict or drama or the situation is out of the ordinary, the situation also has human interest. Any time human emotions come into play, this news element is present. Some stories are newsworthy on this basis alone. Most news stories have a combination of two or more of these news elements.

Reflection : Having learned about A Matter of facts is bout to understand what is fact how to make difference between fact and opinion, I think that fact is the real of incident and people have already believes that is true, and opinion is about people’s thinker it can be different and everyone has argument each other.

Summarize : Journalism focus on with the collection, preparation, and distribution of news and related commentary and feature materials through such print and electronic media as newspapers, magazines, books, blogs, webcasts, podcasts, social networking and social media sites, and e-mail as well as through radio, motion pictures, and television. The word journalism was originally applied to the reportage of current events in printed form, specifically newspapers, but with the advent of radio, television, and the Internet in the 20th century the use of the term broadened to include all printed and electronic communication dealing with current affairs.

Reflection : Having learned about Journalism about to understand what journalism is, what makes history, and what the profession and how to present-day journalism, Journalism in book form has a short but vivid history. The proliferation of paperback books during the decades after World War II gave impetus to the journalistic book, exemplified by works reporting and analyzing election campaigns, political scandals, and world affairs in general, and the “new journalism” of such authors as Truman Capote, Tom Wolfe, and Norman Mailer. The 20th century saw a renewal of the strictures and limitations imposed upon the press by governments. In countries with communist governments, the press was owned by the state, and journalists and editors were government employees. Under such a system, the prime function of the press to report the news was combined with the duty to uphold and support the national ideology and the declared goals of the state. This led to a situation in which the positive achievements of communist states were stressed by the media, while their failings were underreported or ignored. This rigorous censorship pervaded journalism in communist countries.
