Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Journalists order or arrange information in a news story according to the inverted pyramid, placing the most important information at the beginning of the story and including subsequent information based on its significance. A news story should end with the information that is least critical to an understanding of the issue or event. The material at the end of the story should still be relevant, well written, and factual, but it should only be detail or context. The information that most readily satisfies the "who, what, where, when and why" of the story belongs at the beginning of the article or broadcast.
