Answer 1

The first paragraph should always be the most important piece of information and the general point of the article. From there you can add more details and less important pieces of information.

Answer 2

Start off with the most important information written as succinctly as possible. Choose your words carefully, because a lot of people don't read every word of an article. If it gets you going and makes you want to read more, then you are heading in the right direction.

You get one or two clues about writing articles from the fil "All The Prsident's Men". When the two as yet unteamed reporters are preparing an article, Bernstein edits Woodward's work to put an important name at the beginning. Later, in reviewing what articles should go where in the paper, a story is mentioned about a statue and rain. Most of the editors laugh, but the chief editor says that it is the only stroy everyone will read. This suggests that you must use known information at the start of your story, and that you must make the rest of the story punchy and easy to read to maximise your readership. If what you write doesn't work, use this to teach you how reach your readership by taking their interests into account, not your own.
It can be hard, but is well worth the effort. I have written a number of articles for a local newspaper and I currently edit and write news for the newsletter of a local organisation.

Answer 3

I work for a newspaper and there are a few things you should write in the article. You should have Who, What, When, Why and How. Your article should also have a distinct start, middle, and ending. Most reporters also never write from the first person perspective. That means you might want to interview others that know something about your subject. You might also use a book (or website) called AP style. It is the "Bible" of writing articles.
Good luck!

Answer 4

Years ago peircings were confined to the lobes of the ears. Now it seems anything goes with the naval, tongue, nipples and even more 'sensitive' areas of the body being the subject of the needle.

So what makes people peirce?...

Answer 5

the first paragraph is always the most improtant, but make sure it isnt biased, weather you are for or against body pearcings make sure you dont seem to swerve one way rather than the other. then ask opinions of different people and set out the paragraphs like
1. about pircings
2. why not
3. why
4. for
5.against
6.your opinion.
7.famous quotes and some background to pircings eg where did it start
8. conclusion

Answer 6

Are you new to the job? Well I'd just try to discuss the whole topic from different angles, like fashion, social aspects, generation conflicts, health aspects, and find some local people to comment on it, like people of different ages, or customers and owners of a piercing studio. Depends on how much room you have for the whole article.
Cheers!

Answer 7

The people who get them...
The variety of places people get them...
The different "jewellery". And, ...Oh, oh, check out the "Prince Albert".
I bet he's rolling around in his grave, everytime somebody gets one of (those) piercings.
Theres a site...
Google - "Piercing Mildred"
Perhaps consider doing a write up of that, or a similar site.
