Telling The Story
05:01
Few editors tell their journalists, 'go and get me the facts and figures'. They say, 'go and get me the story.' We'll look at why stories work so well with a news story example from the beginning of the Arab Spring. Edie will introduce the idea that a story structure can allow you to get your messages across in a memorable form.
Use ‘I’ not ‘We’
04:00
It may be clear to you who you're speaking about in an interview, but it may not be clear to the journalist or your audience. Edie explores how using 'I' rather than 'we' can help make your content more personal and how using 'we' can alienate or confuse people.

This lecture looks at how - by describing details and using names we get away from the bland and conceptual into the real and specific. Edie shares an example of two possible answers to an interview question to illustrate the idea of how to give more colour, detail and positive messages.
Descriptions, Facts, Emotions And Messages
