If you want to be a good young reporter, you must first learn to interview, then write real news reports, and publish them in a timely manner so that the public can learn about good people, good things, new things, and emergencies happening around them in a timely manner. When an incident occurs, you must rush to the scene in time to interview the parties involved to understand the cause and course of the incident. You must also interview witnesses at the scene and the heads of relevant departments who came to deal with the incident. Observation must be careful. When writing news reports, you must grasp the six elements of news: when, where, what, why, how and who, that is, five w and one h. Then when writing news reports, you must report objectively, truthfully, meticulously and in a timely manner. I think I can do the above points well, and with my own serious efforts, we can all become an excellent campus reporter. How to be a young reporter. To be a good young reporter, you must first cultivate news sensitivity. Many students are envious of the reporter's career, and they also want to be a young reporter, so that their articles and photos can be published in newspapers and let their classmates When , teachers, father, and mother see it, they will be so proud. However, being a young reporter is not easy. A reporter has a heavy responsibility. The articles he writes must withstand the review of millions of readers without making any mistakes. So, if you have this good wish, start from now on. You must work hard to understand the responsibilities and conditions of being a reporter, cultivate your own news awareness, and gradually improve your quality. In this way, you can grow from the little reporter you are today to a real reporter. 1. What is news: 1. Definition of news - news refers to "reports of recent facts." This contains three levels of meaning. (1) "Recent" refers to the time when the news happened. Generally speaking, the newer the news, the better. (2) "Facts" are the logical starting point for news writing. The most important characteristic of journalism is that it speaks with facts and not fabrications. (3) "Reporting" refers to the selection of appropriate news genres for dissemination through mass media. The above three aspects are the basic contents that constitute the definition of news. Without one of them, news cannot be constituted. As a young reporter, due to age and campus environment restrictions, the content of my reports is often news that happens on campus, which is news that most students care about. Some people call such news campus news. 2. Several news writing genres - news genres include news, communications, letters and calls, features, reviews, news reviews, news photography, etc. 2. The basic elements that constitute news and writing characteristics: To sum up simply, the elements of news are five W and one H. That is, "when", "where", "who", "why" and "how". The characteristics of literary writing can be summarized in six words: true, new, strange, short, precise and profound. 3. Characteristics of news writing: 1. Truth - the authenticity of news is the most important. Some students always like to make up some plots when writing essays, or imitate other people's essays. If it is barely allowed when writing articles, it is a big taboo in news and is absolutely not allowed. News requires absolute truth. 2. New - two meanings, one refers to new things that have just happened; the other refers to old things from a new angle, and the new content revealed by this angle. 3. Odd - refers to special. Find something different. For example, we report more general school news, which makes people feel tired of hearing about it. So can you report on how students in special schools, such as schools for blind children, schools for the mentally retarded, and schools for the deaf and mute, live and study; their thoughts and academic performance; the dedication their teachers make for them; their happiness and Distress etc. 4. Short - refers to the length of the article, which requires grasping the main features, highlighting the key points, and being concise and to the point. 5. Essence - refers to the concise language of the article, no nonsense, no need to describe where there is no need to describe, no need to explain where there is no need to explain, no need to use two sentences to express clearly in one sentence, and no need to use one word to express Use fewer sentences.

6. Depth - refers to the depth of the issues revealed in the manuscript. The depth of a news report and its value depend on how well the reporter reflects the essence of things through information. When young reporters are learning to write, they should observe more and Think more, and on the basis of gradual improvement, write some good news with a certain depth that can attract people's attention. 4. Several methods of news: 1. Observation method - as a young reporter, you must have a pair of "news eyes". Everywhere you go, you should pay attention to the surrounding environment, observe people and things, see what is out of the ordinary or what changes have occurred, and then judge whether there is news after thinking about it. 2. Listening method - As a young reporter, you must have a pair of "news ears". In addition to watching TV and listening to the radio every day, you should also pay attention to the conversations of teachers, classmates, and family members. Sometimes you can dig out some news reflecting ideological trends from their conversations. 3. Investigation method - As a young reporter, you should learn to conduct investigations. Investigation is a means, not an end. The purpose of investigation is to understand what students are thinking, what they care about, what hot topics they have, what wishes, pursuits, sorrows and joys they have, what they are most interested in, etc. Before the investigation, you can develop an investigation outline, purposefully go deep into the students, and carry out investigation activities in various forms to obtain first-hand materials. 4. Mining method - There are two situations discussed here. One is that it is news in the first place, or the potential news is dug out to the root. From a small piece of news, through in-depth understanding, a big news is made. Second, no news clues were originally found in discussions or interviews, but through in-depth digging, an influential piece of news was found. 5. Tracking method - This refers to seizing a news clue, conducting follow-up interviews, and making continuous reports. Such reports are more complete and substantial, and sometimes very attractive to readers. 6. Exploitation method - Literally understood as opening up new areas, it can also be understood as choosing a new angle. In short, it is necessary to break through the original frame or model and make our coverage wider and broader. This is mainly for young reporters who already have some experience. 7. How to make friends - As a young reporter, you should try to make more friends. In this way, through interactions between friends, you can learn about many people and things outside your own age group. 8. Reading method - some people call it the method of collecting information. In the process of reading newspapers, listening to the radio and collecting information, you can be inspired and draw inferences. From every piece of news in the newspaper, you can learn about the strange things happening around you. Write news about a matter of concern or interest through interviews; sometimes you can clearly remember the relevant things even without interviewing. The above lists eight ways to obtain news clues. Of course, it’s not just these eight, you can also give some examples. But for young journalists, if you can learn these eight methods and apply them in your own practice, I believe you will not feel that there is no news around you, nor will you feel that there is nothing to write or that you don’t know what to write. As long as you are diligent and hardworking, you will always be able to find news clues and write good articles. 5. How to cultivate your own news sensitivity: 1. National events 2. Pay attention to small things around you 3. Use your brain and think diligently 4. Learn to catch the "news eye" 5. Learn to use news clues 6. News "runs" out 7. Learn to dig out news. 8. News also needs planning. 6. To be a good young reporter, you must learn to do news interviews (1) Characteristics of interviews - interviews are the basis of writing.

(2) There is time for interviews Limitations - news reports must be timely and accurate, so timeliness is particularly emphasized, and interviews, writing, and publication tasks must be completed within the deadline.

Be fully committed when interviewing (1) Get into the role quickly: (1) When interviewing elders, you should be straightforward, polite and generous (2) When interviewing peers, you should be lively and friendly, and be able to adjust the atmosphere. (2) Questioning is the key: 1. Four methods of asking questions: (1) Frontal asking: - When asking questions, be straight to the point, straightforward, and do not go around in circles. This is frontal asking. (2) Side questions: - If you can't get a good answer when you ask directly, you can use side questions to help the interviewee recall and associate, and ask for real and specific news materials. (3) Negative question: - Sometimes, interviewees are reluctant to be interviewed by reporters. Some are unwilling to talk because they are modest, some are afraid to talk because they have ideas, etc. For these situations, reporters can adopt a counter-questioning method, deliberately asking the interviewees to arouse their interest, and let them change from "I want to talk" to "I want to talk." (4) Questioning method: - Based on a plot, an event or other materials answered by the interviewee, follow up and ask questions to dig out the most authentic news materials layer by layer. 2. Things to note when asking questions: (1) Ask only one question at a time. (2) Questions should be short rather than long. (3) Ask more "why" questions. Questioning is the key to interviews, and the methods and techniques are not difficult to master. As long as we are good at learning, practicing and summarizing, we can develop a sensitive "news brain" to open the "chatterbox" of the interviewee, "dig out" the information and materials we want to know, and improve the quality of the interview. 10. Take notes on the spot: 1. Contents of notes - (1) Remember key points. (2) Remember the doubt points. (3) Record the interviewee’s distinctive and individual language.
