Going deeper into the very center of things
i just chatted by email with my colleague Brigid Schulte, Who is part of a new narrative journalism WaPo blog called Story Lab. magnificent idea! Please read this blog and chime in with comments particularly if care, As I think a lot of us do, About well known, well crafted, strongly crafted stories in the paper. (And here's the ombudsman blog in which we see Brigid doing what's right by telling the grieving mother that she ought to stop chain smoking.
Excerpt from our first exchange:
Thanks so much for agreeing to speak about your story on narrative journalism. actually, This is the kind of writing that got me into journalism from the very first. I remember taking a class in college called The Literary journalists and reading these wonderful pieces collected in an anthology by Norman Sims that rang so true true in the journalistic sense because the stories were real, But also true in the sense that writing with some top same techniques used in fiction narrative, stairmaster a story out, conversation, Foreshadowing, Drawing full character portraits can take you deeper and farther into [-censured-=https://datingspanishwomen.travel.blog/2019/06/13/get-to-know-spanish-women/]dating a spanish girl[/-censured-] the guts of things.
Then you get very first newspaper job and your editor tells you you write with "an excessive amount of damn color" And wants you to hack away at what you were certain was a brilliant little gem about the western pine beetle and this is of life and it goes downhill from there. at the very least, I'm not sure I pull off this sort of writing very often, Or do you ever, But i enjoy read it. And hope rises eternal. Lane Gregory's piece you noted earlier on the feral child, The Girl in the window, Absolutely blew me away when it first came out. experienced been riveted.)
joel:. I got the idea for the narrative article when two things crossed my eyeballs in short succession captured. First, I read a blog item or any news snippet tweet sniffle harrumph about a dispute at Columbia Journalism School over how to teach the craft of journalism.
appear to one side (And I'm pulling this from memory so flag it as absolutely all wrong) Believes in teaching a traditional curriculum including an emphasis on long form narrative. The other side wants to emphasize new media, And all the new tricks and methods therein. Meanwhile data point two i recently came across a copy of the Orlando Sentinel, Which seemed to have abandoned stories altogether just a dizzying array of graphics, chart, head lines, Subheds, suggestions for getting started, appertains, Blinkers, Squawkers, Needlers and other whiz bang stuff that I have no idea the technical name of. It just didn't look like a newspaper that advocated itself anymore. It didn't look to me as if the editors thought that people can still read. And here's Part 2 of our transmission. Post feed-back at Story Lab!
[Extra lines of credit: Read and opine on Eric Schmidt's piece in the WSJ on Google saving trade magazines. Am still chewing on this subject. (Part of me thinks grandma looks though like a wolf. But I reserve the authority to revise and extend that remark.)
it is a key passage, in my opinion,there's no doubt:
With dwindling revenue and decreased resources, Frustrated newspaper executives seek someone to blame. Much of their anger currently is directed at Google, Whom many executives view as getting all the benefit from the business relationship without giving much in return. what exactly is it, my personal opinion, Suggest or maybe.
Google is a superb source of promotion. We send online news publishers a billion clicks a month from Google News and more than three billion extra visits from our other services, which includes Web Search and iGoogle. undoubtedly 100,000 business opportunities a minute to win loyal readers and generate revenue for free. If readers want to read on need to be click through to the newspaper's Web site. (The exception are stories we host through the licensing agreement with news services.) And as long as they wish, publishing can remove their content from our search index, Or from search News.
The claim that we're making big profits on the back of newspapers also misrepresents the reality. in search, We make our money primarily from classified ads for products. Someone types in digital camera and gets ads for video cameras. A typical news lookout for Afghanistan, Say may bring about few if any ads. The revenue constructed from the ads shown alongside news search queries is a tiny fraction of our search revenue.
acceptable. I believe Google's desire to help broadsheets is sincere. I think Schmidt is genuinely enthusiastic about the way things are going. But the fact remains that Google is eating up all the online advertising that was supposed to keep newspapers afloat. coupled with Schmidt, throughout column, Explains why. Search is the killer app even greater killer than, perhaps, Sticking carefully reported and crafted stories betwixt readers and ads.]
Engelmann Aww, asap, of your little harsh. Even the harsher voices there weren't all necessarily what I would consider "Trolls, And even among the actual trolls were almost kinda cute, In their expected way.
After one of my fairly rare information on the "Celebritology" article, I was charged with trolldom. somewhat threw me for a loop. I do ignorant and/or silly, anways, i do droll, I do cynical, I typically do caustic. But I hardly go looking to anger folks with unsupportable commentary, Which appears how I define "Trolling, They block the majority of us content (Dratted CTRC) over the internet these days. Its part who is sitting in front of what and paying whom and part, "What no Canadian written? whizz,
So I'll probably have to wait for yjkt's advice (And thank your on the) And hold out dvd's. It will cut onto the yarn budget, But I do need something to watch out while knitting yanno.
On an off area note, Mrdr is monitoring girls curling (Olympic being different tirals now on in Edmonton). Said it was kind of like watching girls throw a ball. Fie on jacob, along with shame.
medical professional, I suspect Fox will start running re runs of Glee starting in one or two weeks. There's no way they are gonna let a show like that go until April broke in its slot. They'll re run it like crazy.
I liked this attack of Glee, But am ambivalent with that final scene, a final kiss. i reckon I'm glad Shu left his wife, But not certain about his rebound girl. (besides that, I [-censured-=https://datingspanishwomen.travel.blog/2019/06/13/get-to-know-spanish-women/]hot spanish women[/-censured-] which includes the actress who plays his wife, Though the type of course is pretty awful.) And I suppose the big cliffhanger is how will Sue get back her job, And what horror will she visit upon poor Shu.
I wish Liz and Jen Cheney would log off that interminable "displaced" Kick and start a little bit of Glee chats, Though with the growing season now over it's plain too late. So I guess its back to Bad Ben and the Smoke enormous. (not too I follow those chats any more, Because i will not.)
Girls' styling? (shortly rejecting 27 jokes.) i really could watch that. pretty sure. proceed by.
also, costly. actually sounds like Yoki didn't like that narrative site. that does not bode well for me either. There's no way they are gonna let a show like that go until April without a penny in its slot. They'll re run it constantly.
