Document Summary
A lot packed into a short amount of ime. Presents itself as unbiased even though bias is inevitable. Naionalisic language used (red white blue color schemes) Opens with the camera panning around the studio, we"re seeing more of the behind the scenes aspect of the show. Looks more modern and up to date but it"s sill the same journalisic approach. Anchor eases you from one segment to the next. Tradiional format of what news was and is today. Hierarchy of authority beginning with the anchor. Very vague broadcasts, ambiguity, don"t want to ofend any paricular party. Discussion on whether or not soccer turf is safe. Brian william"s doesn"t have to take a stance or an opinion, safer. The burden turns to the audience to prove the correlaion. Goes from hard news to sot news staring with crisis (ebola) and ending with the blood moon and whales. The anchor has an opinion, doesn"t shy away from making a point.
