News Coverage Reporting and Editing

Most reporters file information or write their stories electronically from remote locations. In many cases, breaking stories are written by staff members, through information collected and submitted by other reporters who are out on the field gathering information for an event that has just occurred and needs to be broadcast instantly. Radio and television reporters often compose stories and report “live” from the scene. Some journalists also interpret the news or offer opinions and analysis to readers, viewers, or listeners. In this role, they are called commentators or columnists. Reporters take notes and also take photographs or shoot videos, either on their own, or through a photographer or camera person. The book provides substantial material on writing general stories including personals, briefs, speeches, interviews and meetings and simple story types including illness, death, obituaries, funeral, fires, weather stories and natural disasters. It goes into the details of crime reporting and other local beats. Contents: News Release • Video News Release • Press Conference • How Public Relations Works • Propaganda • Public Relations and Management • Interviews • Copy Editing • Audio Editing • Film Editing • Editorial Ethics Guidelines.
