On Similarities and Differences between New Media Editors and Traditional Paper Media News Editors

1, political sensitivity, reliability of information sources: traditional paper media editors will be more cautious, because paper media cannot be changed and deleted after publication, and once it causes adverse effects, it will be severely criticized.

2. Writing style: The paper media is more regular, the new media is more lively, and the writing style is more fragmented to adapt to the mobile phone screen.

3. Work skills: Traditional paper media will have a clearer division of labor. News pictures have a special cameraman, and there is a special team to produce or outsource infographics. Full-time editors generally do not participate in photo production; The new media is a bit messy. In most cases, editors should not only write, but also draw. Even if there are online drawing tools on the market, such as Yi Tu's design, in fact, drawing while writing distracts the energy of new media people, which will lead to the result that they are not proficient in both.

End readers: Most of the people targeted by the new media are people on the mobile side, so they care more about fragmentation points, such as titles, pictures and gimmicks, rather than the logic, structure and literary talent of the article; The paper media is more disciplined. Due to the large space, the overall level of the article is high in structure and logic.
