What is 4w rule in news report
Answers
Explanation:
1.Generally speaking, the lede, or introduction to the story, should be a single sentence of 35 to 45 words that summarizes the main points of the story, not a seven-sentence monstrosity that looks like it's out of a Jane Austen novel.
2.The lede should summarize the story from start to finish. So if you're writing about a fire that destroyed a building and left 18 people homeless, that must be in the lede. Writing something like 3."A fire started in a building last night" doesn't have enough vital information.
Paragraphs in news stories should generally be no more than one or two sentences each, not the seven or eight sentences you probably wrote for freshman English. Short paragraphs are easier to cut when editors are working on a tight deadline, and they look less imposing on the page.
4.Sentences should be kept relatively short, and whenever possible use the subject-verb-object formula. Backward constructions are harder to read
Answer:
5Ws stand for What, Why, When, Where, and Who.
Explanation:
According to the principle of the Five W's, a report can only be considered complete if it answers these questions starting with an interrogative word-
Who is it about?
What happened?
When did it take place?
Where did it take place?
Why did it happen?
Some authors add a sixth question, "how", to the list, though "how" can also be covered by "what", "where", or "when"
How did it happen
Each question should have a factual answer — facts necessary to include for a report to be considered complete. Importantly, none of these questions can be answered with a simple "yes" or "no".
It's the kind of inquiry that is taught to children when they're about to embark on a writing assignment and much like children, we must demonstrate the same kind of dogged persistence and determination that they often exhibit when they are trying to learn something new.
