How well international news are reported? Introduction The aim of this report is to analyse how the media covers international news. The report will comment on the coverage of international news and evaluate the main points when covering an event. Sources of information When reporting an event, reporters should pick up information from trustful sources only. Sources are the backbone of the new, reporters should check the information twice in order to give legitimacy to their report. A doubtful source not only could spoil your article but your career as well. Remember, your boss would not be happy to see its newspaper turned into a news rag. Coverage of the event The coverage of an event should be meticulously planned. If the coverage fails the audience would not receive the message adequately. First of all, journalists should know what type of event they will cover and the location where the event will eventually happen. International coverage demands more expertise and time to cover especially when news occur in a remote place where communications are not so fluid. Security Some events like demonstrations, war and shootings should be covered only by trained reporters that are able to cope with those scenarios. If you are not trained to do so you should not put your life in danger. Many reporters were badly wounded or kidnapped during riots or other violent events. Conclusion In conclusion reporting an international event to a vast and diverse audience is not an easy task. The points I have mentioned before are extremely relevant to inform the audience appropriately, if they are omitted the new will be not transmitted correctly. All in all I would not do any changes on the items I mentioned.
