Among the six elements of the same news event, there is no fixed and absolute standard to judge which is the most critical and important. Sometimes it is related to the nature, viewpoint and tendency of the news organization where the reporter works, and sometimes it changes with the focus and angle of the whole report. Therefore, the same news event needs to be emphasized and highlighted in the eyes of different journalists.
For example, in the same theft case, some reporters will highlight the "why"-the dereliction of duty of the security guard; Some reporters will highlight "who"-the thief is actually a public security officer; Some journalists may highlight "when" in the "two dozen" special struggle-in broad daylight.
Lead writing is very important at the beginning. Not empty, full of concepts and slogans, not too many names, titles and company names, otherwise it will crowd out or dilute important and fresh news facts.
Matters needing attention in news writing:
Newsgroups become headlines, introductions, topics, backgrounds and conclusions. It is characterized by truthfulness, concreteness, quick response, clear viewpoint and concise language. News writing is a means to express news facts in words, which is accurate. To write news, you must first know what news is. News is a report of recent facts.
This definition clearly defines the relationship between facts and news: the origin of news is facts, news is the report of facts, facts are primary, news is secondary, facts come first and reports last. It can also be said that facts are the cells that make up news. Without facts, news would not exist.
News writing, in fact, is to objectively describe the facts and comment on them. When writing news, only by explaining the people, time, place, reasons and process clearly can readers, listeners and viewers feel that the news is true and credible. The facts should be typical. Choose the facts that best reflect the theme and the essence of things.
This requires us to select typical materials and typical examples from a large number of specific facts. If you don't make a choice and list a lot of materials, you will dilute or drown out the news theme, resulting in people and events not being prominent, unclear views and failing to achieve the due publicity effect.
