Welcome to the Nqabile Recorporations virtual reporter!The virtual reporter provides checklists for information generally needed for most stories. It helps the real reporter to keep track of essential information, and not hand in an incomplete story. The virtual reporter cannot teach you how to write or structure a story. Computers have no sense of news values. Remember though that any item on the checklist can normally be used as the "angle" for the story. Please select a topic from below If you have a previously saved story, enter the story number here: |
Suggestions for ways to improve the virtual reporter are welcome. Send me mail.
