Radio How is radio reporting different from newspaper reporting and television reporting?

Radio Journalism Condensed format: Print stories are rewritten for time constraints. Headlines mp3?nvb= &nva= &sid=df09b609448af8165de e02&l_sid=18778&l_eid=&l_mid= &t= fe875ec4fb25d Print reporters write hundreds, even thousands of words for a particular story. Few, radio stories have even a hundred words

Newspapers are also written hours before they are read, so the events described seem like "old news." Radio, on the other hand, has an intimate, "you-are- there" quality that is enhanced by the use of the present tense. Newsmakers spoke to newspaper reporters (”Obama said...."); they speak to a radio audience (”Obama SAYS....").

Radio Reporting The in-studio interview Actualities: recorded segment of a newsmaker speaking, generally lasting from 10 to 20 seconds; this is what people outside of radio journalism often call a "sound bite” (Obama talking about the economy) Voicers: recorded report containing only the journalist's voice (narrating events that are unfolding) Teaser: brief phrase spoken by the anchor immediately before playing a spot or going to traffic (or some other interruption of the newscast) to tell the listener about a story coming up later; the tease should intrigue the listener without either misrepresenting the story or revealing it entirely
