Stomach Bug Going Around

The article and the reader

This post begins with a discussion he had in writing with a couple of friends. I raised the issue of clarity of an article for the public that reads it. The comment is that I was given an article, it is well written always clear. I disagree with this statement because cos' saying does not take into account that there are two cornerstones of an article the journalist and the reader. Or rather, the vision of the journalist who gives the news and the vision that has the reader. By that I mean that when you write if you want the message to go light, you must know to whom you write. There is no record of ever writing. An article about a scientific discovery can be made with a number of technical terms and specific references to where it is intended for an audience of industry insiders, however, or those who have specific technical skills. The same article in a newspaper must be able to explain the news to an audience heterogeneous, trying to be as clear as possible and using as little as possible the technical terms that can be unlocked only for those employees.

short, the way a journalist from the news can not be influenced by the knowledge that his readers.
