| Zusammenfassung: | Written by a former news reporter and editor, News Talk gives us an insider's view of the media, showing how journalists select and construct their news stories. Colleen Cotter goes behind the scenes, revealing how language is chosen and shaped by news staff into the stories we read and hear. Tracing news stories from start to finish, she shows how the actions of journalists and editors - and the limitations of news writing formulas - may distort a story that was prepared with the most determined effort to be fair and accurate. Using insights from both linguistics and journalism, News Talk is a remarkable picture of a hidden world and its working practices on both sides of the Atlantic. It will interest those involved in language study, media and communication studies and those who want to understand how media shape our language and our view of the world |

Colleen Cotter goes behind the scenes, revealing how language is chosen and shaped by news staff into the stories we read and hear. Tracing news stories from start to finish, she shows how the actions of journalists and editors - and the limitations of news writing formulas - may distort a story that was prepared with the most determined effort to be fair and accurate. Using insights from both linguistics and journalism, News Talk is a remarkable picture of a hidden world and its working practices on both sides of the Atlantic. It will interest those involved in language study, media and communication studies and those who want to understand how media shape our language and our view of the world Journalism / Language Reporters and reporting Englisch (DE-588)4014777-0 gnd rswk-swf Sprache (DE-588)4056449-6 gnd rswk-swf Journalismus (DE-588)4028779-8 gnd rswk-swf Zeitungssprache (DE-588)4131821-3 gnd rswk-swf Englisch (DE-588)4014777-0 s Zeitungssprache (DE-588)4131821-3 s 1\p DE-604 Journalismus (DE-588)4028779-8 s Sprache (DE-588)4056449-6 s 2\p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-52565-7 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-81961-9 https://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9780511811975 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
