Media Revelation #8


My eighth media revelation comes from chapter 3, in which Hilliard discusses how important it is for media writers to keep their writing simple and direct, a point which was also heavily stressed in my print journalism class. From these two classes, I've learned that in today's fast paced world, few people have the time, interest, or investment to sit down and process information that is too difficult or complicated for them to understand. Keeping your writing short, simple, and to the point is the best and most effective way to retain an audience's attention and interest.
