Event Details

 

Football journalism


The minute-by-minute match report is a format pioneered by The Guardian, and requires a different approach and set of skills from other types of match reporting. One of the most frantic methods of covering sporting events, it's also the most egalitarian – as the tools are open to everyone to use


This intensive evening Masterclass will cover:


• Tone in live commentary and writing online.
• Interacting with users.
• Dealing with user feedback and comments.
