Newspaper Article Homework

Due: 5/3

Instructions

*There’s a specific formula that newspaper journalists should follow when authoring a news

story *The “lead” of a news story, typically the first paragraph, should provide a clear and concise

overview of the main point(s) (who, what, when, where, how and why)

* The “lead” should tell the reader what he/or she will be learning about in the article

Instructions (cont.)

* The content of a news story should be unbiased, and completely fact-based.

* Sentences should be clear, concise and worded in a manner that is appropriate for the audience.

* Another important concept to keep in mind when writing a news story is the pyramid format. Place the most important facts at the beginning of the broadcast and additional information in

order of descending importance so that readers get the most important information 1st

* Using the pyramid style of reporting ensured that the most important information would be disseminated first.
