How to write a newspaper article for history in the perspective of someone who lived long ago...?

We Answered:

Ever played make-believe when you were little? This is really similar. Try to put yourself into the shoes of a reporter. You've been struggling at this small-town newspaper shop for years, and now your manager gives you this writing assignment. You you do it right, then you'll be promoted. So you go to see one of the speeches made by a preacher of the Enlightenment. Talk about how you felt as you watched the preacher talk, what the preacher talked about, and the way that he presented the information.

How to write a good newspaper article?

We Answered:

News writing is still based on the old "five w's" which are who, what, when, where, and why. The "inverted pyramid" is still good, too. That means put the most important thing at the top of your story, then the other things in descending order of importance. Don't make your paragraphs too long -- newspaper stories tend to give about 5 typewritten lines (in 10 or 12 point) to a paragraph. And use short words and active verbs.

Hope this helps!

I need to write a newspaper article on the assassination of Malcolm X...can you help me?

We Answered:

Malcolm X e; May 19, 1925 – February 21, 1965), was an African-American Muslim minister, public speaker, and human rights activist. To his admirers, he was a courageous advocate for the rights of African Americans, a man who indicted white America in the harshest terms for its crimes against black Americans. His detractors accused him of preaching racism, black supremacy, antisemitism, and violence.He has been described as one of the greatest and most influential African Americans in history.

Malcolm X was born in Omaha, Nebraska. By the time he was thirteen, his father had died and his mother had been committed to a mental hospital. His childhood, including his father's lessons concerning black pride and self-reliance and his own experiences concerning race, played a significant role in Malcolm X's adult life. After living in a series of foster homes, Malcolm X became involved in hustling and other criminal activities in Boston and New York. In 1946, Malcolm X was sentenced to eight to ten years in prison.

While in prison, Malcolm X became a member of the Nation of Islam. After his parole in 1952, he became one of the Nation's leaders and chief spokesmen. For nearly a dozen years, he was the public face of the Nation of Islam. Tension between Malcolm X and Elijah Muhammad, head of the Nation of Islam, led to Malcolm X's departure from the organization in March 1964.

After leaving the Nation of Islam, Malcolm X became a Sunni Muslim and made a pilgrimage to Mecca, after which he disavowed racism. He traveled extensively throughout Africa and the Middle East. He founded Muslim Mosque, Inc., a religious organization, and the secular, black nationalist Organization of Afro-American Unity. Less than a year after he left the Nation of Islam, Malcolm X was assassinated while giving a speech in New York.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malcolm_X ----------------------- Malcolm X taught that black people were the original people of the world, and that white people were a race of devils who were created by an evil scientist named Yakub. The Nation of Islam believed that black people were superior to white people, and that the demise of the white race was imminent.

When he was questioned concerning his statements that white people were devils, Malcolm X said that "history proves the white man is a devil." He enumerated some of the historical reasons that, he felt, supported his argument: "Anybody who rapes, and plunders, and enslaves, and steals, and drops hell bombs on people... anybody who does these things is nothing but a devil."

Malcolm X said that Islam was the "true religion of black mankind" and that Christianity was "the white man's religion" that had been imposed upon African Americans by their slave-masters. He said that the Nation of Islam followed Islam as it was practiced around the world, but the Nation's teachings varied from those of other Muslims because they were adapted to the "uniquely pitiful" condition of black people in America. He taught that Wallace Fard Muhammad, the founder of the Nation, was Allah incarnate, and that Elijah Muhammad was his Messenger, or prophet.

While the civil rights movement fought against racial segregation, Malcolm X advocated the complete separation of African Americans from white people. The Nation of Islam proposed the establishment of a separate country for black people in the Southern or Southwestern United States as an interim measure until African Americans could return to Africa. Malcolm X suggested the United States government owed reparations to black people for the unpaid labor of their enslaved ancestors. He also rejected the civil rights movement's strategy of nonviolence and instead advocated that black people use any necessary means of self-defense to protect themselves.

Malcolm X at a 1964 press conferenceAfter he left the Nation of Islam, Malcolm X began to articulate his own views. During the final year of his life, his philosophy was flexible, and it is difficult to categorize his views on some subjects. Some of the themes to which Malcolm X frequently returned in his speeches demonstrate a relative consistency of thought.

After leaving the Nation of Islam, Malcolm X announced his willingness to work with leaders of the civil rights movement. However, he felt that the civil rights movement should change its focus to human rights. So long as the movement remained a fight for civil rights, its struggle remained a domestic issue. By framing the African American struggle for equal rights as a fight for human rights, it would become an international issue and the movement could bring its complaint before the United Nations. Malcolm X said the emerging nations of the world would add their support to the cause of African Americans.

How do you write a newspaper article? ?

We Answered:

I'm a journalism major. Here is a bit of help :D

Start with a "lead." This is your first paragraph, make it short and sweet. This can be just a sentence. Think of something that will make readers go "wow, I have to read this article!" It may help you get in the "journalism mood" if you write it in the width of a newspaper column. If you think about it, newspaper columns are really skinny and likewise their paragraphs are short and to the point.

From this point, you should write it in the "inverted pyramid" style. Basically, think of a pyramid and flip it upside down. The biggest portion is on the top, the smallest portion is on the bottom. This means that you put the MOST IMPORTANT information on the top, such as "Innmate shot as running towards fence." You put the LEAST IMPORTANT information on the very bottom of the story. Journalists do this so that if their reader gets bored with the story and stops reading, they won't miss anything important.

Some general tips:

Use quotes from the book if you can to make it seem more authentic.

Write in short, brisk sentences. This is an article, not a narrative 5-page paper.

Remain unbiased. This supposed to be a news article- so don't start talking about how you feel about the matter.

If you want to make it look like a real article, you can make a mock-up in Microsoft Word. Just go to Format>Columns to put it in news columns. Also, you can go to Insert>Text Box to make a "headline" at the top of the story. I would recommend using Arial bold for the headline.

Good Luck!
