THE CHRONOLOGICAL STORY Chronological stories are entertaining, but only if you stick with them from start to finish — which makes them an annoyingly slow, inefficient way to deliver breaking news. See for yourself: EXAMPLE On Sept. 20, Pete Moss bought some drugs from Lynn C. Doyle. But Moss’s dog bit Doyle in the leg during the transaction. So Doyle grabbed a shotgun and killed Moss’s dog. Moss was furious. He got in his car, chased Doyle into an alley and crushed him against a dumpster. Doyle died. The next day, Moss confessed to police that he had run Doyle over. He was arrested and charged with second-degree murder. Yesterday, Moss pleaded guilty in court. The judge sentenced him to 10 years in prison. On his way to Jackson State Prison, Moss leaped from a police van and escaped. A search is under way.

THE INVERTED PYRAMID Here is the chronological story example retold using the inverted pyramid: A search is under way for a criminal who leaped from a police van outside of Jackson State Prison yesterday. After pleading guilty to second-degree murder in court, Pete Moss was on his way to begin serving a 10-year sentence when he escaped. Moss had been arrested Sept. 21 after confessing to killing Lynn C. Doyle by running him over in an alley with his car. Moss admitted he had been furious with Doyle for shooting Moss’s dog during a drug deal. The inverted pyramid helps readers scan news stories quickly and efficiently. But it helps you write news stories quickly and efficiently, too.

The Body of a News Story Putting the Pieces Back Together When you watch, listen to, or read news reports of an earthquake, what facts and details do you expect the reporter to include? Partner up and order the clippings from an article dealing with an earthquake into the order you think it should appear in order to best represent the inverted pyramid. We will compare your order to the actual story when you are done.
