Question

Card 7 1 Do you prefer to keep up with the latest news? How? 2. Do you know anybody who has ever been on the news? What was the story? 3 Do the media concentrate too much on "bad news” and not enough on “good news stories? 4. What do you think about the future of mass media?​

Answer 1

Ответ:

The story is in the telling of it. A major public

transportation overhaul is a "bad story" insofar as the

construction drastically alters a historic neighborhood

but a "good story" insofar as it meets people's current

needs in an environmentally sustainable way. Even

inherently bad news involving illness, violence, and so

on may have its story told with a forward-looking

"Where do we go from here?" The story doesn't pre-

exist in a good or bad format. Much of the

interpretation is created by the writer and then by the

reader.
