finding feature leads

                            Finding Feature Leads 

“Oh my God—we hit a little girl.” This was the single, shocking cover line of the October 1966 issue of Esquire. Inside was John Sack’s 33,000-word New Journalism masterpiece, M, in which he followed a single company of American infantrymen from Fort Dix, New Jersey, to the war in South Vietnam. With that story—the longest to ever appear in Esquire—Sack single-handedly invented what it meant to be an embedded reporter and reset the bar for what journalism could be: trenchant, moving, and at times funny and even rollicking, yet dead set on revealing in personal terms the most troubling and urgent issues of our time. Esquire executive editor Mark Warren, who was Sack’s last editor at the magazine, joins host David Brancaccio to discuss Sack’s legacy and why he remains the least known but arguably most important New Journalist of his generation.

NPR has released the final versions of the new clocks for its newsmagazines and set a date of Nov. 17 for their implementation.

The network unveiled proposed clocks in July after more than a year of work that involved staff and representatives from member stations. The clocks are the second-by-second scheduling of what happens when during the newsmagazines, including newscasts, music beds and funding credits. They also affect when stations can insert their own local content.

Miscellaneous Freak Leads 

he exuberant and ageless John Sack was the only American journalist to witness combat in every American war from Korea in the early fifties to Afghanistan in 2002. The “embed” arrangement—which attached a journalist to a particular military unit—was virtually invented for Sack. While he was covering the Korean War for Stars & Stripes, his status as a correspondent ended after he stowed away overnight aboard an American landing ship to interview Chinese prisoners of war and was arrested by the American military police when the ship docked in Pusan, South Korea.

But Francis said, ‘I want to look at the Mafia not as thugs and gangsters but like royalty in Rome.’ And he saw something in me that fit Tessio as one would look at the classics in Rome.”

bobby hawthorne introduces us to feature writing (without using the word feature)

                                      Bobby Hawthorne 

1.  "He says by running every story idea through an obstacle course that will produce the most interesting and informative coverage." I think him the reporters should do there job thats what they get paid for to collect data and i guess he thought they were not doing his job.


2. "this is a recipe for success if you're trying to peddle journalism like microwave popcorn. That is "hot and ready to go in 90 seconds or less. Tastes like whatever you put on it, and won't fill you up."
"So if your goal is to make certain readers can skim through the paper , search for a few familiar names and faces and be finished with it in five minutes or less, then there's no need to read on."
what he is saying is if your ready to be successful with journalism don't take forever to solve your problems.
