In this week, we studied various aspects of reporting for print, some of which were completely new to us. Firstly, we learnt about press conferences- its different stages and types. Next, we came across news agencies or wire services and discussed some major news agencies of India as well as at global level. Speeches, often confused with lectures was also taught to us and some major differences between both of them. Structure of a news story, which is a crucial aspect of writing was discussed in detail followed by some important ethics of reporting that includes neutrality, gatekeeping and discouraging practices such as biasness and fake news.
