Journalism Homework

Post comments here or write your paragraph to turn in tomorrow.

In a complete paragraph, explain why style, language level, connotation and denotation, and/or precise word choice matter when writing for mass media?

  1. Style matter when writing for mass media because you want to grab people's attention with spontaneous words. Language level matters because you don't want to leave the reader confused while he/she is reading. Connotation and denotation matters because it brings out the meaning of words. Precise word choice matters because you don't ever want to mistake a word for another. For example, to/too or seen/scene

  2. Style matters when writing because its different ways you have to express yourself while writing. Also using precise wording shows your feeling, the way you think, and the way you look writing in general. Different styles of writing that you use can attract reader’s attention and motivate or influence them to write. Travon Profit
