Summary

News story structure is the inverted pyramid is the basic form of news writing which places the information in the story in the order of decreasing importance. The most important of the readers’ questions are answered in the lead and first few paragraphs. The details, for those who want more information, are included in subsequent paragraphs.

Some basic rules of news writing:

• The lead, or first paragraph, of the story should be short, about 25 words.

• Subsequent paragraphs should also be short, between 25 and 35 words. News paragraphs bear little resemblance to the paragraphs of essays that students have been writing, except that they are indented at the beginning.

• The story should answer the questions associated with the 5 Ws and H (Who, What, Where, When, Why and How) in a logical order, beginning with the information that is the most important or interesting to the reading audience.

• News should be in active, rather than passive, voice. Sentences written in active voice are livelier and are more concisely written than those in passive voice.

News Briefs is a news briefs are very concise stories, generally between two and four paragraphs, which give very basic information about an event or situation which merits coverage, but does not require a full-blown story. These may or may not include quotations. They are written in classic inverted pyramid style. And for, News Writing is news writing style is the prose style used for news reporting in media such as newspapers, radio and television. News writing attempts to answer all the basic questions about any particular event—who, what, when, where and why (the Five Ws) and also often how—at the opening of the article. This form of structure is sometimes called the "inverted pyramid", to refer to the decreasing importance of information in subsequent paragraphs.
