DESCRIPTORS Comparative Analysis; Higher Education; Journalism Education; *Newspapers; *News Writing; *Radio; *Television; *Writing for Publication; Writing Instruction; Writing Skills IDENTIFIERS *Professional Writing; Writing Contexts; *Writing Style ABSTRACT This monograph examines the features of writing in three journalistic media: television, radio and print. The monograph is relevant not only to students and teachers of journalism but also to those interested generally in the field of composition studies. It offers a highly specific analysis of the differences among the writing styles for these three media--differences that are often felt by student and teacher alike but rarely described in detail. Comparative in orientation, the monograph examines each of the three media in all major sections: (1) Leads;(2) Story Structure; (3) Sentence Structure;(4) Word Choice;(5) Names, Quotes and Attribution. Each of these sections discusses a number of distinct points; three columns, one for each of the media, highlight the comparisos. The section on "leads," for instance, looks at summary leads, datelines, beginning with names, the umbrella lead, an item lead, an anecdotal lead, a delayed lead, a buried lead, question leads and quote leads.

First of all I’d like to thank my committee chair Dr. David Craig. Without his guidance, patience and prayers for my well-being I don’t know where I would be today. I’d like to also thank my other committee members: Dr. Eric Kramer, Dr. Julie Jones, Dr. Jill Edy, and Dr. Ralph Beliveau. I would also like to thank former member Dr. Namkee Park for making me feel normal for researching video games.

Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum. Digital Id.: JFKWHP-ST-C61-1-61 Famed broadcast journalist Edward R. Murrow (1908-1965) chose the National Press Club as the forum for his first speech since taking office a few months earlier as director of the United States Information Agency (USIA), the organization responsible for communicating U.S. policy abroad and carrying out much of the government’s international information and cultural programs. Created in 1953 as an independent agency reporting directly to the president, USIA took over from the State Department the operation of Voice of America (VOA) radio broadcasts and U.S. Information Service (USIS) centers around the world, programs that had been established during World War II to communicate U.S. war aims and otherwise aid in the war effort abroad. Following the war, State Department officials, skeptical of the diplomatic value of programs they considered “propaganda,” persuaded Congress to cut VOA and USIS allocations severely. In late 1947, however, a committee of U.S. senators traveling in Europe reported “a campaign of vilification and misrepresentation” conducted by the Soviet Union’s newly formed propaganda agency Cominform to discredit the Marshall Plan recently implemented to rebuild Europe with massive amounts of U.S. aid. 1 Congress subsequently passed the Smith-Mundt Act—with the Senate voting unanimously in its favor—to establish a permanent peacetime program “to promote the better understanding of the United States among the peoples of the world and to strengthen cooperative international relations.” President Harry S.
