Newspapers and Journalism

News comes to us from several sources including word of mouth, newspapers, television and radio broadcasts and increasingly via the Internet.

Each medium has its own style, but we can also identify a journalistic register, of which newspapers are the most significant users.

The best way to become familiar with newspaper register and to become aware of the differences between the styles of different newspapers, particularly broadsheets contrasted with tabloids, is to buy four newspapers on a single day and to draw up a table using a check list of features.
