R19 - Radio News Story Analysis

 

This analysis of the report allows me to see how a news report's manual paper is laid out. This will also help me with setting out my newscast in this format, thus allowing me to use the traditional methods of news reporting. I have annotated all the important parts of the texts. For example the bold text at the top outlines the story about to presented. The following text reported by "Joss Harding" includes the 5 W's. It also shows the audience targeted etc. Then it shows where the clip is inserted and this allows the people in the studio to 'click off'. They know the duration of the clip and are allowed to take a quick break. Then when the reporter reports the story again, they can summarise the story. This gives me a fair amount of knowledge on how to set out a radio news story on paper which will make it easier for me when i write out my script for my news cast.
