Light aircraft lost in Chile

We show today an outstanding example of a follow-up work. It has been published by one of the big newspapers in Chile, La Tercera. The “informative trickle” as a virtue: the interest in being on the lookout every day until closing the story. 

The more analysis, the better

The more facts we have, the more analysis we need: It´s harder but also essential. A lot of information and a head to organize it are needed, but that´s what the reader expects from a newspaper. We have read a few interesting examples from La Vanguardia, La Voz de Galicia and Las Provincias these days:

It depends...

In life, things aren´t always black and white. There are some facts which some people like while others don´t. To discover that and to talk about it is a sign of good journalism. We have seen a good example, focused on November´s warm temperatures, in Las Provincias:

Working on a map

Planning facts on a map. A simple map: simplicity and clarity. It allows “entering” the map even without order, because that´s “the least important detail”. We have seen two good examples. The first one is from El Norte de Castilla. The second one, from Las Provincias.

The open-air drinking session is the protagonist of another good report from this newspaper focused on one of the biggest problems in the cities: noise.

Aperitif in Barcelona

A new example, read in La Vanguardia, of being on the lookout for what happens on the street. Trends can be approached with accuracy. To do so, we need facts and more facts.

In defense of photojournalism

Most of this blog´s followers already know about the 14th of November´s edition of Libération. Javier Errea wrote an outstanding text (in Spanish) about it: “El negativo de las imágenes invisibles”. We also join in with enthusiasm to the defense of photojournalism showing, by sections, the whole edition:

A few days after this huge wager, a gunman burst into the French newspaper´s office. A lot of newspapers put the story in their front-page and the attacker´s image stood out. Libé, on the contrary, offered a very different front-page. Amazing.

In first person

Finding the words “short story” in a newspaper is a really good sign. It means an invitation to read. And that´s what it´s all about: a newspaper must be read. In La Rioja we have found an excellent double-page: It´s not only an interesting topic, it is also catching because it has been written by its protagonists.
