Journalism allows us to inform ourselves about what is happening in our country and in the world
Journalism is undoubtedly one of the most relevant activities that human beings have developed since it is through the exercise of it that communities can find out about relevant events or events of common interest, that is, learn about what happens in your country or the rest of the world. Also thanks to the interpretations or opinions expressed by journalism about important issues, public opinion can understand them satisfactorily.
Meanwhile, in journalistic practice we can find interpretive, opinion, or informative journalism, which is precisely what we will deal with below.
It deals exclusively with informing about the events that happen and that matter
Informative journalism deals exclusively with reporting in an objective, impartial and detailed way about all those notable events that have happened in the corresponding country or in the rest of the world and that are also important to know.
Report in a clear, simple way, with an accessible language that everyone understands
In this type of journalism, everything that happens so that the common reader knows what is happening is reported in a direct, simple way, that is, in this type of journalism there are no opinion columns, editorials, or anything that has to do precisely with interpretation or opinion. The main function of this journalism is to keep the public, the reader, the listener informed about current events.
To properly satisfy this demand from the public, news journalism must limit itself to recounting in a clear, simple and objective way what is news. Opinions or interpretations of these news will be the responsibility of those who practice opinion journalism.
It is also very important that the language is clear and in common use, that is, that all the public can understand the news when reading it, regardless of the academic levels that one or the other presents.
Through resources such as the title, the drop of the note, the reader must already find out about what is being reported. In the body of the article or note, more details will of course be provided so that the reader has a complete idea about what is being reported, how it happened, why, who was involved, among other issues.
