Copyediting for reporters
In their working lives, reporters naturally concentrate on reporting — making calls, developing sources, conducting interviews and research, and finally writing. All this effort centers on getting stories and making sure they’re timely, accurate and compelling.
In large news operations, be they print, online or broadcast, journalists know that after they submit their stories, their copy will normally go through an editor and copyeditor before publication. The goal of these additional layers of attention is to ensure that stories are comprehensible, consistent and correct.
