(Deborah Lee/NPR)
I can’t think of a better way to start a post about leads than with this:
“The most important sentence in any article is the first one. If it doesn’t induce the reader to proceed to the second sentence, your article is dead.” — William Zinsser, On Writing Well
No one wants a dead article! A story that goes unread is pointless. The lead is the introduction — the first sentences — that should pique your readers’ interest and curiosity. And it shouldn’t be the same as your radio intro, which t ells listeners what the story is about and why they should care. In a written story, that’s the function of the “nut graph” (which will be the subject of a future post) — not the lead.
The journalism lead’s main job (I’m personally fond of the nostalgic spelling , “lede,” that derives from the bygone days of typesetting when newspaper folks needed to differentiate the lead of a story from the lead of hot type) is to make the reader want to stay and spend some precious time with whatever you’ve written. It sets the tone and pace and direction for everything that follows. It is the puzzle piece on which the rest of the story depends. To that end, please write your lead first — don’t undermine it by going back and thinking of one to slap on after you’ve finished writing the rest of the story.
Coming up with a good lead is hard. Even the most experienced and distinguished writers know this. No less a writer than John McPhee has called it “ the hardest part of a story to write.” But in return for all your effort, a good lead will do a lot of work for you — most importantly, it will make your readers eager to stay awhile.
There are many different ways to start a story. Some examples of the most common leads are highlighted below. Sometimes they overlap. (Note: These are not terms of art.)
Straight news lead
Just the facts, please, and even better if interesting details and context are packed in. This kind of lead works well for hard news and breaking news.
Some examples:
“After mass street protests in Poland, legislators with the country’s ruling party have abruptly reversed their positions and voted against a proposal to completely ban abortion.” (By NPR’s Camila Domonoske )
“The European Parliament voted Tuesday to ratify the landmark Paris climate accord, paving the way for the international plan to curb greenhouse gas emissions to become binding as soon as the end of this week.” (By NPR’s Rebecca Hersher )
“The United States announced it is suspending efforts to revive a cease-fire in Syria, blaming Russia’s support for a new round of airstrikes in the city of Aleppo.” (By NPR’s Richard Gonzales )
All three leads sum up the news in a straightforward, clear way — in a single sentence. They also hint at the broader context in which the news occurred.
Anecdotal lead
This type of lead uses an anecdote to illustrate what the story is about.
Here’s a powerful anecdotal lead to a story about Brazil’s murder rate and gun laws by NPR’s Lulu Garcia-Navarro :
“At the dilapidated morgue in the northern Brazilian city of Natal, Director Marcos Brandao walks over the blood-smeared floor to where the corpses are kept. He points out the labels attached to the bright metal doors, counting out loud. It has not been a particularly bad night, yet there are nine shooting victims in cold storage.”
We understand right away that the story will be about a high rate of gun-related murder in Brazil. And this is a much more vivid and gripping way of conveying it than if Lulu had simply stated that the rate of gun violence is high.
Lulu also does a great job setting the scene. Which leads us to …
Scene-setting lead
Byrd Pinkerton, a 2016 NPR intern, didn’t set foot in this obscure scholarly haven , but you’d never guess it from the way she draws readers into her story:
“On the second floor of an old Bavarian palace in Munich, Germany, there’s a library with high ceilings, a distinctly bookish smell and one of the world’s most extensive collections of Latin texts. About 20 researchers from all over the world work in small offices around the room.”
This scene-setting is just one benefit of Byrd’s thorough reporting. We even get a hint of how the place smells.
First-person lead
The first-person lead should be used sparingly. It means you, the writer, are immediately a character in your own story. For purists, this is not a comfortable position. Why should a reader be interested in you? You need to make sure your first-person presence is essential — because you experienced something or have a valuable contribution and perspective that justifies conveying the story explicitly through your own eyes. Just make sure you are bringing your readers along with you.
Here, in the spirit of first-personhood, is an example from one of my own stories :
“For many of us, Sept. 11, 2001, is one of those touchstone dates — we remember exactly where we were when we heard that the planes hit the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. I was in Afghanistan.”
On a historic date, I was in a place where very few Americans were present, meaning I’m able to serve as a guide to that place and time. Rather than stating I was in Afghanistan in the first sentence, I tried to draw in readers by reminding them that the memory of Sept. 11 is something many of us share in common, regardless of where we were that day.
Observational lead
This kind of lead steps back to make an authoritative observation about the story and its broader context. For it to work, you need to understand not just the immediate piece you’re writing, but also the big picture. These are useful for stories running a day or more after the news breaks.
Here’s one by the Washington Post’s Karen Tumulty , a political reporter with decades of experience:
“At the lowest point of Donald Trump’s quest for the presidency, the Republican nominee might have brought in a political handyman to sand his edges. Instead, he put his campaign in the hands of a true believer who promises to amplify the GOP nominee’s nationalist message and reinforce his populist impulses.”
And here’s another by NPR’s Camila Domonoske , who knows her literary stuff, juxtaposing the mundane (taxes) with the highbrow (literary criticism):
“Tax records and literary criticism are strange bedfellows. But over the weekend, the two combined and brought into the world a literary controversy — call it the Ferrante Furor of 2016.”
Zinger lead
Edna Buchanan, the legendary, Pulitzer Prize-winning crime reporter for the Miami Herald , once said that a good lead should make a reader sitting at breakfast with his wife “spit out his coffee, clutch his chest and say, ‘My god, Martha. Did you read this?’”
That’s as good a definition as any of a “zinger” lead. These are a couple of Buchanan’s:
“His last meal was worth $30,000 and it killed him.” (A man died while trying to smuggle cocaine-filled condoms in his gut.)
“Bad things happen to the husbands of Widow Elkin.” (Ms. Elkin, as you might surmise, was suspected of bumping off her spouses.)
After Ryan Lochte’s post-Olympic Games, out-of-the-water escapades in Rio, Sally Jenkins, writing in the Washington Post , unleashed this zinger:
“Ryan Lochte is the dumbest bell that ever rang.”
Roy Peter Clark, of the Poynter Institute, deconstructs Jenkins’ column here , praising her “short laser blast of a lead that captures the tone and message of the piece.”
Here are a few notes on things to avoid when writing leads:
- Clichés and terrible puns. This goes for any part of your story, and never more so than in the lead. Terrible puns aren’t just the ones that make a reader groan — they’re in bad taste, inappropriate in tone or both. Here’s one example .
- Long, rambling sentences. Don’t try to cram way too much information into one sentence or digress and meander or become repetitive. Clarity and simplicity rule.
- Straining to be clever. Don’t write a lead that sounds better than it means or promises more than it can deliver. You want your reader to keep reading, not to stop and figure out something that sounds smart but is actually not very meaningful. Here’s John McPhee again: “A lead should not be cheap, flashy, meretricious, blaring: After a tremendous fanfare of verbal trumpets, a mouse comes out of a hole, blinking.”
- Saying someone “could never have predicted.” It’s not an informative observation to say someone “could never have imagined” the twists and turns his or her life would take. Of course they couldn’t! It’s better to give the reader something concrete and interesting about that person instead.
- The weather . Unless your story is about the weather, the weather plays a direct role in it or it’s essential for setting the scene, it doesn’t belong in the lead. Here’s a story about Donald Trump’s financial dealings that would have lost nothing if the first, weather-referenced sentence had been omitted.
One secret to a good lead
Finally, good reporting will lead to good leads. If your reporting is incomplete, that will often show up in a weak lead. If you find yourself struggling to come up with a decent lead or your lead just doesn’t seem strong, make sure your reporting is thorough and there aren’t unanswered questions or missing details and points. If you’ve reported your story well, your lead will reflect this.
Further reading:
- A Poynter roundup of bad leads
- A classic New Yorker story by Calvin Trillin with a great lead about one of Buchanan’s best-known leads.
- A long read by John McPhee , discussing, among other things, “fighting fear and panic, because I had no idea where or how to begin a piece of writing for The New Yorker .” It happens to everyone!

How to Write a News Article That's Effective
It's similar to writing academic papers, but with vital differences
- Writing Research Papers
- Writing Essays
- English Grammar
- M.Ed., Education Administration, University of Georgia
- B.A., History, Armstrong State University
Techniques for writing a news article differ from those needed for academic papers. Whether you're interested in writing for a school newspaper, fulfilling a requirement for a class, or seeking a writing job in journalism, you'll need to know the difference. To write like a real reporter, consider this guide for how to write a news article.
Choose Your Topic
First, you must decide what to write about. Sometimes an editor or instructor will give you assignments, but you’ll often have to find your own topics to cover.
If you get to choose your topic, you might be able to pick a subject related to your personal experience or family history, which would give you a strong framework and a dose of perspective. However, this route means you must work to avoid bias—you may have strong opinions that could affect your conclusions. You also could pick a topic that revolves around a personal interest, such as your favorite sport.
Research for Your News Article
Even if you end up with a topic close to your heart, you should begin with research, using books and articles that will give you a full understanding of the subject. Go to the library and find background information about people, organizations, and events you intend to cover.
Next, interview a few people to collect more information and quotes that give perspective on the topic. Don't be intimidated by the idea of interviewing important or newsworthy people—an interview can be as formal or informal as you want to make it, so relax and have fun with it. Find people with backgrounds in the topic and strong opinions, and carefully write down or record their responses for accuracy. Let the interviewees know that you will be quoting them.
Parts of a News Article
Before you write your first draft, you should be aware of the parts that make up a news story:
Headline or title
The headline of your article should be catchy and to the point. You should punctuate your title using Associated Press style guidelines unless your publication specifies something else. Other members of the publication staff frequently write the headlines, but this will help focus your thoughts and maybe save those other staffers some time.
- "Lost dog finds his way home"
- "Debate tonight in Jasper Hall"
- "Panel chooses 3 essay winners"
The byline is the name of the writer—your name, in this case.
Lead (sometimes written "lede")
The lead is the first sentence or paragraph, written to provide a preview of the entire article. It summarizes the story and includes many of the basic facts. The lead will help readers decide if they want to read the rest of the news article or if they are satisfied knowing these details.
Once you’ve set the stage with a good lead, follow up with a well-written story that contains facts from your research and quotes from people you’ve interviewed. The article should not contain your opinions. Detail any events in chronological order. Use the active voice —not passive voice —when possible, and write in clear, short, direct sentences.
In a news article, you should use the inverted pyramid format—putting the most critical information in the early paragraphs and following with supporting information. This ensures that the reader sees the important details first. Hopefully they'll be intrigued enough to continue to the end.
The sources
Include your sources in the body with the information and quotes they provide. This is different from academic papers, where you would add these at the end of the piece.
Your conclusion can be your last bit of information, a summary, or a carefully chosen quote to leave the reader with a strong sense of your story.

About Ledes
The introduction to a news article is called the 'lede' and is usually in the first paragraph as in an essay. The 'lede' is a deliberate misspelling of 'lead' to prevent confusion in the days when printing was done with lead type.
The lede not only tells what the story is about, it also invites the reader to read further. Ledes answer the classic 5 W's and an H questions of journalism:
What happened? What could happen?
Who did it? Who did it happen to? Who else was involved?
Where did it happen? Where else will be impacted?
When did it happen? When is it going to happen?
Why did it happen? Why will your reader care?
How did it happen? How does it work?
Some specific types of ledes -
- The summary lede or 'hard news' lede delivers the 5 W's and an H in the 1st paragraph, getting to the most important or compelling information immediately - A California mother is recovering from second- and third-degree burns after colored rocks her family collected from beach unexpectedly caught fire while in her pocket.
- An analysis lede introduces a story where the basic facts are already known and where readers are looking for explanation - The suspension of US sanctions in Myanmar in response to political reforms gives a green light to US firms looking for business opportunities.
- A blind lede is a summary lede that leaves out particularly confusing details - World leaders say they are committed to soothing financial markets to prevent an economic calamity.
- A narrative lede sets the scene for the article by introducing the main players - Eight California high-schoolers with the same last name pull off a witty stunt.
- A scene-setter lede introduces the article by highlighting a key location in the story - A broken-down cargo ship drifts towards the fringes of Australia's Great Barrier Reef amid fears of major damage to the World Heritage-listed site.
Tips for writing and revising ledes -
- Read your lede OUT LOUD - Do you stumble over words? Does it sound like something you would tell a friend? Eliminate any words you trip over or that are confusing.
- Cut out extra words - See how many words you can eliminate. Have you put in description that could come later in the article? Have you added details that slow down readers' scanning? Have you used only words that will catch a reader's attention?
- Especially look for passive verbs - is playing should be plays .
- Check for accuracy - Have you spelled names correctly? Did you give the right locations, times, and dates? Is what you said what you meant to say? Is what you said what actually happened?
- Avoid cliche and cute -Clichés are overused expressions that have stopped being original. Think carefully about whether you're using phrases or words that you hear everyday, even popular ones, and work for something more original.

The Correct Way to Write an Article Title in a Paper
![how to write news article in an essay gradecrest-hero-image](https://gradecrest.com/assets/blogs/Titling-an-article-in-a-paper.webp)
It is a cardinal rule to cite scholarly sources when writing a paper. Most professors will specify the approximate number of sources for a paper, essay, or assignment. A well-written academic paper is objective and has references or works cited page where you list the references used. However, how do you write the title of an article when writing a paper?
When you mention an online or magazine article in your essay, do not just do it as you please. There is a formula you need to follow depending on the referencing style. This post looks at how to title an article in an essay following the APA, Harvard, MLA, and Chicago.
Let’s commence.
How to Title an Article in APA
APA stands for American Psychological Association. The association published the first APA stylebook in the late 1920s. Over the years, the stylebook has been widely adopted beyond psychology. It has also been updated many times. The stylebook meticulously describes how to format every aspect of your essay.
Whenever you mention the name of a source in an APA essay, there are rules you need to follow. This is true for all sources, including articles, books, webpages, reports, chapters, etc.
The rules you need to follow depend on the type of source (standalone source or part of a greater thing). For some sources, you simply capitalize and italicize the main words; for others, you have to capitalize the main words and put them in double quotation marks.
You need to italicize and capitalize their names when you mention standalone sources. Standalone sources include a podcast, a TV series, a dissertation, a movie, and an e-book.
Examples showing how to write larger works in APA
- Morbid: A True Crime Podcast (podcast title)
- The Last of Us (TV series title)
- Canadian Legal System Versus US Legal System: A Comparative Study (dissertation title)
- The Pirates of the Caribbean (movie title)
- For a Dollar and a Dream: State Lotteries in Modern America (e-book title)
On the other hand, when you mention sources that are part of a greater work, you need to capitalize them and put them in double quotation marks. Examples of these sources include a magazine article, a newspaper article, a blog post, and a journal article. This means mentioning any article must capitalize its title and put it in double quotations.
Examples showing how to write article titles in APA
- “Study of Correlation between Criminality and Population” (journal article title)
- “Effective Active Ingredients Obtained through Biotechnology” (journal article title)
- “Doping in Cycling: Everything You Need to Know” (magazine article title)
- “Do you know what is in Your Cosmetics?” (newspaper article title)
- “35 Best Ways to Make Money Online in 2023” (blog post title)
Titling an article in a Harvard Style Format Paper or Essay
The Harvard referencing system was invented late in the nineteenth century by a Harvard University professor. The system has been widely adopted beyond the lecture halls of Harvard. It is popularly used to reference various works in the following fields: philosophy, behavioral sciences, and humanities.
When you name or mention an article in a Harvard essay, there are rules you must follow. There are rules you need to follow when you mention any work in a Harvard essay.
The rules you need to follow depend mainly on the size of the work. The titles of large works are formatted differently compared to the titles of small works.
Large works include books and journals. When you mention a book or journal in a Harvard essay, you must italicize the entire title and capitalize the major words.
Examples showing how to write large works in Harvard
- The Lucifer Effect (book title)
- Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us (book title)
- Games People Play (book title)
- Comparative Studies in Society and History (journal title)
- Journal of American History (journal title)
The titles of smaller works are written differently in contrast to the title of large works. They are written by putting them inside single quotation marks.
Smaller works include journal articles, blog posts, web pages, web articles, etc. Whenever you mention these things in your essay, you must put them inside quotes.
Examples showing how to write smaller works in Harvard
- ‘Sex, Military Brothels, and Gender Violence during the Italian Campaign in the USSR, 1941-3’ (journal article title)
- ‘Hitler’s Worldview and the Interwar Kulturkamf’ (journal article title)
- ’10 POC-Owned Advisory Businesses With Insanely Great Marketing’ (blog post title)
- ‘How to Use Instagram for Your Financial Planning Business’ (blog post title)
- ‘These 9 Decorative Accessory Trends Are About to Pop Off in Your Group Text’ (web page title)
How to Title an Article in MLA
MLA is an acronym for Modern Language Association. The association started in 1883 to promote the study of modern languages and literature. It published the first stylebook in 1953 and has made major updates to it a number of times. The MLA style is widely used in the following fields: cultural studies, comparative literature, literary criticism, foreign languages, and English studies. It is also used in humanities disciplines.
When you mention an article or any other source in MLA, there are rules you need to follow. The rules largely depend on the type of source you mention.
When you mention a large standalone work (a book, a film, a journal, a website, a magazine, or a movie), you must italicize it and then capitalize all major words. (You should capitalize articles in the middle of the title, prepositions, and coordinating conjunctions.
Examples showing how to write large works in MLA
- Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies (book title)
- Literary Theory: An Introduction (book title)
- Fast Company (magazine title)
- Library Philosophy and Practice (journal title)
- Teens Dealing with Death; When Someone Dies: Understanding Grief (movie title)
When you mention a singular article (journal or otherwise) or any other smaller work, you must put it in double quotation marks. No italicizing as in the case of larger works. Examples of smaller works that need to be put in quotes include journal articles, web articles, news articles, book chapters, songs, short stories, TV episodes, magazine articles, and poems.
Examples showing how to write smaller works in MLA
- “Collaborative writing among young EFL learners in a school context: product and process” (journal article title)
- “Investigating cohort effects of early foreign language learning” (journal article title)
- “Studying French is easy: 10 tips to learn French fast” (web article title)
- “ChatGPT Gets Dartmouth Talking” (news article title)
- “Do not go gentle into that good night” (poem title)
How to Title an Article in a Chicago Format Essay/Paper
Chicago format is an American English formatting style invented by the University of Chicago in 1906. It is widely used in many academic disciplines (fine arts, history, and business) and book publishing.
When writing an essay according to the Chicago stylebook, you must follow everything recommended in it. How you are supposed to write the title of a journal or a book is not the same way you are supposed to write the title of a journal article or a book chapter.
The Chicago Manual of Style requires you to italicize the title of all standalone works you mention in your essay. Standalone works that you must italicize include journals, books, plays, and so on.
Examples showing how to write the titles of standalone works in Chicago
- Internal Journal of Art & Design Education (journal-title title)
- Studies in Art Education (journal title)
- Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion (book title)
- Rich Dad Poor Dad (book title)
- Long Day’s Journey Into Night (play title)
The Chicago Manual requires you to enclose the title of short works in double quotation marks. Examples of short works that need to be enclosed include journal articles, magazine articles, news articles, book chapters, etc.
- “Frank Gehry’s non-trivial drawings as gestures” drawdlings and kinaesthetic approach to architecture” (journal article title)
- “The Saka ‘Animal Style’ in Context: Material, Technology, Form and Use” (journal article title)
- “An Abandoned, Industrial Ruin Bursts With New Life in Delaware” (magazine article title)
- “The Unfinished Business of International Business Tax Reform” (news article title)
- “The Technologies Behind Bitcoin” (book chapter title)

This page contains reference examples for newspaper articles, including the following:
- Newspaper article
- Comment on an online newspaper article
1. Newspaper article

- Narrative citations : Carey (2019), Harlan (2013), and Stobbe (2020)
- In the source element of the reference, provide at minimum the title of the newspaper in italic title case.
- If the newspaper article is from an online newspaper that has a URL that will resolve for readers (as in the Carey example), include the URL of the article at the end of the reference. If volume, issue, and/or page numbers for the article are missing, omit these elements from the reference.
- If you used a print version of the newspaper article (as in the Harlan example), provide the page or pages of the article after the newspaper title. Do not include the abbreviations “p.” or “pp.” before the page(s).
- If the newspaper article is from an academic research database, provide the title of the newspaper and any volume, issue, and/or page numbers that are available for the article. Do not include database information in the reference. If the article does not have volume, issue, or page numbers available, the reference in this case ends with the title of the newspaper (as in the Stobbe example).
- If the article is from a news website (e.g., CNN, HuffPost)—one that does not have an associated daily or weekly newspaper—use the format for a webpage on a news website instead.
2. Comment on an online newspaper article
sidneyf. (2020, October 7). Oh, I don’t know; perhaps the common-sense conclusion that packing people together — for hours — like sardines — may be an [Comment on the article “When will it be safe to travel again?”]. The Washington Post . https://wapo.st/3757UlS
- Parenthetical citation : sidneyf (2020)
- Narrative citation : sidneyf (2020)
- Credit the person who left the comment as the author using the format that appears with the comment (i.e., a real name or a username). The example shows a username.
- Provide the comment title or up to the first 20 words of the comment; then write “Comment on the article” and the title of the article on which the comment appeared (in quotation marks and sentence case, enclosed within square brackets).
- Link to the comment itself if possible. Either the full URL or a short URL is acceptable. The example shows a URL that the writer has shortened with the bitly URL shortening service.
- If the comment belongs to an article from a news website (e.g., CNN, HuffPost)—one that does not have an associated daily or weekly newspaper—use the format for a comment on a webpage on a news website.
Newspaper article references are covered in the seventh edition APA Style manuals in the Publication Manual Section 10.1 and the Concise Guide Section 10.1

Newspapers and other new sources provide valuable information and updates about current events and ongoing issues. They keep the audience updated about the latest updates and trends in the world. They benefit a variety of audiences. They are a great resource for students and researchers, helping them gain insight into various perspectives on their topics of interest and also help them analyze the topics of their interest.
Why Analyze a News Paper Article?
Analyzing a newspaper article is vital for gaining a deeper understanding of current events and issues. It allows the readers to identify the purpose of the article and also identify the intended audience of the article. Analyzing the newspaper also involves summarizing its key points and arguments, analyzing the language and style, and evaluating the credibility of the article, writer, and information written. It also involves considering its overall effectiveness and relevance. Using these steps, you can develop a well-informed and clear perspective on the topic of interest.

In order to write an excellent, well-organized and well-researched analysis of a newspaper article. you first need to understand how the information is put forth in the article that you’ve chosen and wish to undertake the analysis of. Most newspapers, however, get their articles written in what is called in technical jargon- “The Inverted Pyramid ”. The inverted pyramid is where the meatiest part of the information or piece of news is mentioned at the commencement of the article and the news with lesser degrees of importance is mentioned gradually.

This is done in order to assist the process where a certain new piece of information is found out or got released and you have to add it to the pre-existing structure . This is done by employing the editing style where you go from the bottom of the article to the very top.
Newspaper articles aim to bring answers to six main issues regarding any news . These are:
- The ‘who’ of the news
- The ‘what’ of the news
- The ‘when’ of the news
- The ‘where’ of the news
- The ‘why’ of the news
- The ‘how’ of the news
The “inverted pyramid” structure came about as a result of old media technology – the telegraph. When news information was telegraphed over the wires, the most crucial information was transmitted first. If the connection was lost, the story could still be printed with the essential facts.
Therefore, this method is also suitable for the editors, where they can choose to cut the bottom part to adjust the length of the news. Same way, for analysis purposes, the information structure helps you figure out important aspects of the newspaper article and overall structure.

Criticism of The Inverted Pyramid
While it is a common way to present information in a newspaper article, this method is also criticized often. Few in the media critique the inverted pyramid is not the right fit for every news story, as it may also lead to a decline in the reader’s attention. With the ending being told at the beginning of the story, most of the readers may not read it till the end.
However, this organized method of information is still beneficial in presenting you with structured information.
How to Analyze a Newspaper Article
Now that we have established the fact that newspaper articles are of utmost importance in the modern narrative of affairs , we shall now move onto explaining how one can evaluate these articles. Analyses of a newspaper articles can easily by written by making sure the following steps are well taken care of:
Finding the article that you would like to comment on is quite obviously the very first step. It should be a topic that you are interested in, well-rehearsed in, have some knowledge about and are even passionate about.
Summarizing the Article
To begin with, make a summary of the key points the article is trying to convey. Make sure they are concise and don’t stretch farther than three or five sentences.
To summarize the article, you should consider answering the following questions:
- What is the main topic the author is covering?
- What are the main arguments made by the author?
- What are the pieces of evidence used by the author to support these arguments?
- What is the conclusion?
With this, you will get a clear picture of the article’s content. This summary will also help you in the following steps when it comes to analyzing the tone and style and evaluating the credibility.
Identifying the Purpose and the Audience
Once you have the summary of key points in place, the first step in analyzing the newspaper article is to identify its purpose and the target audience for whom this article was intended. While a summary will provide you with a brief understanding of the key points, this step will help you thoroughly understand the main message and how it is conveyed.
To figure out the audience and its purpose, consider answering the following questions:
- What is the main idea that the article is about?
- What is the author’s main argument about the point or their main point of view?
- Who is this article written for i.e. who is the intended audience ?
- What is the author trying to accomplish i.e. his/her main goal ?
Figure out and denote the intention the article was written for, whether it has some purpose and make a note of that. It’s entirely possible for a newspaper article to have more than b to achieve for example a piece of news can be influencing and entertaining, both for its cause. You must make the critical choice of opting for one main objective of your chosen article and go further enough to provide valid justifications for your choice.
While you have already explained your choice of the article’s purpose initially, you must also go into further detail regarding this by having direct quotations from the article as a part of your analysis.
Moreover, by answering the question mentioned above, you will be able to gain a better understanding of the article’s context and the underlying message as well.
Analyzing Tone and Style
Once you have identified the purpose and the intended audience, you can focus on analyzing its tone and style. Both, the tone and style, can influence the impact and effectiveness of the article greatly. An article writer can use various techniques to convey their message. It can involve the use of persuasive techniques and rhetorical elements to convey the message as well as engage the reader. For analysis purposes, you will be focusing on identifying the use of these techniques and evaluating their impact on the article.
When you are trying to identify the tone, the article just might be trying to convey different tones as well as perspectives. You must make the critical choice of identifying the one major tone that can easily be seen as being the predominant tone of your article.
Again, you must then provide the reader of your newspaper article analysis with valid justifications for your choice of tone as well as provide them with the context by selecting some quotations from the article and making them a part of your analysis.
To identify tone and style, you should consider the following elements:
- Language Use: Is the author conveying his/her point clearly and concisely? Are the terms used right for the target audience? Is the writer using complex or too many technical terms? Are they difficult for the reader to understand?
- Tone: Is the author using a formal tone or being informal? Is it persuasive or informative?
- Style: Is the author’s writing descriptive or analytical? Is the writer using metaphors? How is the writer providing supporting evidence?
When you analyze these elements, you will be able to gain a better understanding of how the author is using various language and writing techniques to convey their message. You’ll also be able to understand how successfully these techniques are contributing to the author’s objective.
Analyzing the Language
After analyzing the tone and style, you should focus on analyzing the language used by the author. This will further help you gain a better understanding of how the author is trying to get their point across and how are they engaging the reader.
To analyze the language, determine the techniques and expressions used by the writer of your article and pick the major three techniques that you think have much more impact than any other. These techniques must each be explained and alluded to separately- not to forget that their objective and function must be established as well so that the use of these by the author of your newspaper article is justified.
This is a great way to make your analysis seem professional and organized. Some examples of techniques you could easily identify and use are the choice of certain words as being appropriate or not for the topic of the article, any wordplay that might cater to the entertainment of the audience, structures that the sentences are put in and whether or not they effectively convey the idea the article is trying to pertain to.
Another golden method to give your newspaper article analysis an upper hand is by picking up words or even writing techniques from the article that you have found unfamiliar to your previous knowledge. These are then to be explained and alluded to in succinct detail and must connect to the context of your article.
If such a thing cannot be identified in your chosen article, another way to ace your analysis is by pointing out certain words, sentences, or approaches that you have found particularly well employed and refined and going into detail about THEIR significance.
In general, try to focus on the following areas to help you follow a more structured approach:
- Use of Persuasive Language: Is the author using any persuasive techniques such as emotional appeals?
- Information Analysis : Is the author giving the information or also challenging any narratives?
- Use of Words: Is the author using simple language for a mass audience or using technical terms? Can the target audience understand the concept clearly?
![how to write news article in an essay girl doing newspaper article analysis](https://scholarace.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Girl-with-book.jpeg)
Last but not the least, comment in detail about any particular ideas or perspectives that the article is trying to convey or perhaps the problems it has tried to address or the solutions provided .
This can be made even more sophisticated if the writer, that is, you give your personal opinion about all of the above. Stating whether you are in agreement or not or have found it helpful or perhaps disturbing can bring a refined edge to your analysis as well.

In the in-text citation, only specify a page number if the article appears on more than one page; otherwise, it’s unnecessary to do so.

Chicago also presents guidelines for an alternative author-date citation style . Examples of newspaper citations in this style can be found here .
The elements included in a newspaper article citation across APA , MLA , and Chicago style are the author name, the article title, the publication date, the newspaper name, and the URL if the article was accessed online .
In APA and MLA, the page numbers of the article appear in place of the URL if the article was accessed in print. No page numbers are used in Chicago newspaper citations.
In APA , MLA , and Chicago style citations for sources that don’t list a specific author (e.g. many websites ), you can usually list the organization responsible for the source as the author.
If the organization is the same as the website or publisher, you shouldn’t repeat it twice in your reference:
- In APA and Chicago, omit the website or publisher name later in the reference.
- In MLA, omit the author element at the start of the reference, and cite the source title instead.
If there’s no appropriate organization to list as author, you will usually have to begin the citation and reference entry with the title of the source instead.
When you want to cite a specific passage in a source without page numbers (e.g. an e-book or website ), all the main citation styles recommend using an alternate locator in your in-text citation . You might use a heading or chapter number, e.g. (Smith, 2016, ch. 1)
In APA Style , you can count the paragraph numbers in a text to identify a location by paragraph number. MLA and Chicago recommend that you only use paragraph numbers if they’re explicitly marked in the text.
For audiovisual sources (e.g. videos ), all styles recommend using a timestamp to show a specific point in the video when relevant.
Check if your university or course guidelines specify which citation style to use. If the choice is left up to you, consider which style is most commonly used in your field.
- APA Style is the most popular citation style, widely used in the social and behavioral sciences.
- MLA style is the second most popular, used mainly in the humanities.
- Chicago notes and bibliography style is also popular in the humanities, especially history.
- Chicago author-date style tends to be used in the sciences.
Other more specialized styles exist for certain fields, such as Bluebook and OSCOLA for law.
The most important thing is to choose one style and use it consistently throughout your text.

Preparing to Write Your Review
Writing the article review, sample article reviews, expert q&a.

An article review is both a summary and an evaluation of another writer's article. Teachers often assign article reviews to introduce students to the work of experts in the field. Experts also are often asked to review the work of other professionals. Understanding the main points and arguments of the article is essential for an accurate summation. Logical evaluation of the article's main theme, supporting arguments, and implications for further research is an important element of a review . Here are a few guidelines for writing an article review.
Education specialist Alexander Peterman recommends: "In the case of a review, your objective should be to reflect on the effectiveness of what has already been written, rather than writing to inform your audience about a subject."
Article Review 101
- Read the article very closely, and then take time to reflect on your evaluation. Consider whether the article effectively achieves what it set out to.
- Write out a full article review by completing your intro, summary, evaluation, and conclusion. Don't forget to add a title, too!
- Proofread your review for mistakes (like grammar and usage), while also cutting down on needless information.
![how to write news article in an essay Step 1 Understand what an article review is.](https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/3/39/Write-an-Article-Review-Step-1-Version-3.jpg/v4-460px-Write-an-Article-Review-Step-1-Version-3.jpg)
- Article reviews present more than just an opinion. You will engage with the text to create a response to the scholarly writer's ideas. You will respond to and use ideas, theories, and research from your studies. Your critique of the article will be based on proof and your own thoughtful reasoning.
- An article review only responds to the author's research. It typically does not provide any new research. However, if you are correcting misleading or otherwise incorrect points, some new data may be presented.
- An article review both summarizes and evaluates the article.
![how to write news article in an essay Step 2 Think about the organization of the review article.](https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/e/e2/Write-an-Article-Review-Step-2-Version-3.jpg/v4-460px-Write-an-Article-Review-Step-2-Version-3.jpg)
- Summarize the article. Focus on the important points, claims, and information.
- Discuss the positive aspects of the article. Think about what the author does well, good points she makes, and insightful observations.
- Identify contradictions, gaps, and inconsistencies in the text. Determine if there is enough data or research included to support the author's claims. Find any unanswered questions left in the article.
![how to write news article in an essay Step 3 Preview the article.](https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/8d/Write-an-Article-Review-Step-3-Version-3.jpg/v4-460px-Write-an-Article-Review-Step-3-Version-3.jpg)
- Make note of words or issues you don't understand and questions you have.
- Look up terms or concepts you are unfamiliar with, so you can fully understand the article. Read about concepts in-depth to make sure you understand their full context.
![how to write news article in an essay Step 4 Read the article closely.](https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/4/4e/Write-an-Article-Review-Step-4-Version-3.jpg/v4-460px-Write-an-Article-Review-Step-4-Version-3.jpg)
- Pay careful attention to the meaning of the article. Make sure you fully understand the article. The only way to write a good article review is to understand the article.
![how to write news article in an essay Step 5 Put the article into your words.](https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/7/7d/Write-an-Article-Review-Step-5-Version-3.jpg/v4-460px-Write-an-Article-Review-Step-5-Version-3.jpg)
- With either method, make an outline of the main points made in the article and the supporting research or arguments. It is strictly a restatement of the main points of the article and does not include your opinions.
- After putting the article in your own words, decide which parts of the article you want to discuss in your review. You can focus on the theoretical approach, the content, the presentation or interpretation of evidence, or the style. You will always discuss the main issues of the article, but you can sometimes also focus on certain aspects. This comes in handy if you want to focus the review towards the content of a course.
- Review the summary outline to eliminate unnecessary items. Erase or cross out the less important arguments or supplemental information. Your revised summary can serve as the basis for the summary you provide at the beginning of your review.
![how to write news article in an essay Step 6 Write an outline of your evaluation.](https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/5/5e/Write-an-Article-Review-Step-6-Version-3.jpg/v4-460px-Write-an-Article-Review-Step-6-Version-3.jpg)
- What does the article set out to do?
- What is the theoretical framework or assumptions?
- Are the central concepts clearly defined?
- How adequate is the evidence?
- How does the article fit into the literature and field?
- Does it advance the knowledge of the subject?
- How clear is the author's writing? Don't: include superficial opinions or your personal reaction. Do: pay attention to your biases, so you can overcome them.

- For example, in MLA , a citation may look like: Duvall, John N. "The (Super)Marketplace of Images: Television as Unmediated Mediation in DeLillo's White Noise ."

- For example: The article, "Condom use will increase the spread of AIDS," was written by Anthony Zimmerman, a Catholic priest.
![how to write news article in an essay Step 4 Write the introduction.](https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/f/ff/Write-an-Article-Review-Step-10.jpg/v4-460px-Write-an-Article-Review-Step-10.jpg)
- Your introduction should only be 10-25% of your review.
- End the introduction with your thesis. Your thesis should address the above issues. For example: Although the author has some good points, his article is biased and contains some misinterpretation of data from others’ analysis of the effectiveness of the condom.
![how to write news article in an essay Step 5 Summarize the article.](https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/4/49/Write-an-Article-Review-Step-11.jpg/v4-460px-Write-an-Article-Review-Step-11.jpg)
- Use direct quotes from the author sparingly.
- Review the summary you have written. Read over your summary many times to ensure that your words are an accurate description of the author's article.
![how to write news article in an essay Step 6 Write your critique.](https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/1/18/Write-an-Article-Review-Step-12.jpg/v4-460px-Write-an-Article-Review-Step-12.jpg)
- Support your critique with evidence from the article or other texts.
- The summary portion is very important for your critique. You must make the author's argument clear in the summary section for your evaluation to make sense.
- Remember, this is not where you say if you liked the article or not. You are assessing the significance and relevance of the article.
- Use a topic sentence and supportive arguments for each opinion. For example, you might address a particular strength in the first sentence of the opinion section, followed by several sentences elaborating on the significance of the point.

It can save you almost 3 hours on every content you create. This way, you can spend more time crafting compelling narratives and less time on rote tasks.
This blog post explores how AI can be used to write news articles. Understanding how to leverage AI in your writing process can change how you approach news storytelling. So, grab your notepad and curiosity; we’re diving into AI news article writing.

FAQs on AI news article writing
![how to write news article in an essay Narrato AI Content Assistant for writing AI news article](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/07c86e3363534341641802b3f409ea7f_06_32_34_28_08_2024.png)
Using AI to write news articles can transform your entire writing process, making it faster, more efficient, and often more comprehensive. AI can analyze enormous datasets quickly, extracting relevant information and identifying trends that might take human researchers much longer to uncover. This capability allows you to provide updates on your company news more swiftly.
As for the actual writing process, AI tools help ensure consistency in writing. AI can generate article drafts by following established narrative structures, maintaining a natural flow, and adhering to journalistic standards. You can also set up your own style guides and rules for writing, with style guide automation on Narrato. Here’s a quick video explaining how it works –
By leveraging AI, writers can focus more on the creative and critical aspects of writing a news article, like interviewing, investigating, and storytelling, while the more routine tasks are automated.
With that, let’s jump into AI news article writing.
With the right tools and a bit of know-how, creating AI news articles becomes easy. It usually starts with feeding the AI tool with relevant information, specific keywords, and clear instructions, and the AI tool takes care of the rest. On Narrato AI , you can generate AI news articles using four different methods –
- With the AI Search & Repurpose News template : This method involves using AI to scan existing news articles and then repurposing them to create new content. It’s particularly useful for follow-up stories or when covering ongoing issues.
- By creating blog articles from URLs: You can also create content from a set of URLs pointing to various news sources. The AI blog generator visits these links, extracts key information, and compiles a comprehensive news article.
- Using AI Chat: Feed the AI with a prompt, and it can generate news articles.
- With the custom AI template generator: With this method, you can design a template or outline based on your specific needs and let the AI fill in the details. Whether it’s financial reports, sports updates, or political analyses, the AI content generator will adapt to various writing styles and content requirements to create the content you want.
Let’s take a look at each of these methods in detail.
1. Generate AI news article with search & repurpose news template
One straightforward method to create AI generated news articles is by using a search and repurpose news template on Narrato. You’ll find this template in the AI Content Assistant, under the ‘Repurpose’ category pill. Here’s how it works –
Step 1. Enter a theme or keyword for searching news articles
When you open the AI template, the AI tool will ask you for a theme or keyword related to the news trends you want to cover.
![how to write news article in an essay](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/890e683aabf07b36ec4eeac9c944bcbe_06_32_38_28_08_2024-scaled.jpeg)
Input these terms into the AI tool’s search function, and it will scan through extensive databases to find related articles.
Step 2. Select a news article and repurpose it for your preferred medium
Once the AI tool presents you with search results, choose an article that best fits your needs. This selection can depend on various factors such as relevance, depth of information, or potential reader interest. You can open the link in another window, and scan through the article to see if it fits your requirements.
![how to write news article in an essay](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/f8cca0b42c51dc6e5685697b31be0982_06_32_44_28_08_2024-scaled.jpeg)
After selecting an article, you can specify how you want to repurpose this content. For instance, if you’re targeting social media channels, you can create a news article in the form of a social media post. Besides this, you can also repurpose it into a blog post for an in-depth news article, and a summary for a short news bite.
![how to write news article in an essay](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/c108eb2dd2cda8109c4bf04ef1c3dabe_06_32_49_28_08_2024-scaled.jpeg)
After you’ve selected the format of the news article, add the target word count for it, and select the tone you want it in.
Step 3. Add any additional instructions for news article generation
This is your opportunity to inject uniqueness and specificity into your article. Add any specific points to emphasize. You could ask for the addition of recent statistics or quotes from experts to give your news article extra depth and interest.
![how to write news article in an essay](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/f8316ebcf9ff863ea7d57b8230d5c349_06_32_53_28_08_2024-scaled.jpeg)
Step 4. Click ‘Generate’
After setting all parameters and inputs, simply click the ‘Generate’ button. The AI will process the instructions and data to produce a tailored news article.
![how to write news article in an essay](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/a68d5b02a619e4182f4b44db8ecfeb52_06_32_58_28_08_2024-scaled.jpeg)
Review the generated content to ensure it aligns with your expectations and make any necessary adjustments to refine the article before publication.
2. Generate AI news article from a URL
AI tools make it easy to generate fresh articles based on existing web content. All you need to do is paste the URL and voila! The AI scans the page, extracts key points, and rephrases them into a new article. Here’s how this works
Step 1. Open the AI blog article from URL template
Navigate to the AI Content Assistant (or the AI writer tab if you already have a content task open on Narrato). Click on the ‘Blog’ content category pill, and select the specific template designed for creating news articles from URLs.
![how to write news article in an essay](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/5b77c0761429c4ae989d0427a858edd7_06_33_04_28_08_2024-scaled.jpeg)
This specialized tool is adept at extracting key information from the provided news link, making sure your content is both true to the source and tailored to fit your distinctive style and format.
Step 2. Input topic and news article links
Input the central topic to orient the AI’s focus and then insert the URL(s) of the news article(s) you wish to base your content on.
![how to write news article in an essay](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/e10d873409960ab6e6fc673d38ff930a_06_33_09_28_08_2024-scaled.jpeg)
Ensure the links are active and lead directly to credible and relevant content. This will form the foundation from which the AI will craft your news article outline and content. Once you’re done adding the links, click on ‘Generate Outline’.
Step 3. Review the AI-generated news article outline
The AI will present an initial outline based on the provided URL(s), highlighting the key points and structuring the information logically. The AI will also suggest a few keywords to target in your news article.
![how to write news article in an essay](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/048e62b97df91f8f45096d397558321d_06_33_14_28_08_2024-scaled.jpeg)
Review this outline carefully to make sure it captures all critical aspects of the story. Add and remove any headings and subheadings, if you want to. You can also set the target length and tone of the AI generated news article.
Step 4. Generate your AI news article
Once satisfied with the outline, proceed to generate the full article. The AI will take the outline and flesh it out into a complete, coherent news article ready for reader consumption. It will also suggest images to go along with the article.
![how to write news article in an essay](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/1a8759cb379c3cd99c833205d1428000_06_33_20_28_08_2024-scaled.jpeg)
Review the article and make sure it maintains factual accuracy and flows logically.
![how to write news article in an essay AI templates for writing AI news article](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/CTA-banners-for-blog-copy-1024x256.png)
3. Generate news articles with AI Chat
An AI chat tool can also assist in generating fresh, engaging news articles in a matter of minutes. All you need to do is provide ChatGPT prompts for writing news articles. Here’s how it works on Narrato –
Step 1. Open the AI Chat tool on Narrato
To start creating AI-generated news articles, the first thing you need to do is access the AI Chat tool on Narrato. Click on the ‘AI Writer’ tab on the content editor page, and navigate to the AI Chat window.
![how to write news article in an essay](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/e618f496a2fb5f414dc8a5dd40257403_06_33_25_28_08_2024-scaled.jpeg)
This is where you can prompt the AI to produce various types of content, including news articles.
Step 2. Input a prompt for generating the news article
Once the AI Chat tool is open, you’ll need to provide a ChatGPT prompt to guide the AI on what type of news article you’d like to generate. This could be anything from breaking news, feature stories, or any other news category. Make sure your prompt is clear and detailed to guide the AI effectively. That means, providing the focus of the news article, some context and essential information, and also the structure you want the news article to be in. Like this 👇
![how to write news article in an essay](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/d92078f1a5dca3a02d7e2a2fa641291f_06_33_31_28_08_2024-scaled.jpeg)
By giving a focused prompt, the AI can produce more relevant and accurate content.
Step 3. Add the content to the editor window to edit
After the AI generates the initial draft based on your prompt, it’s essential to review and edit this content to ensure it meets your standards and is ready for publishing. Narrato provides an ‘Add to Editor’ button so that you can paste the AI-generated text in the content editor window.
![how to write news article in an essay](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/a0f59458c4a4cb00755f1b824a39cb99_06_33_36_28_08_2024-scaled.jpeg)
After it is added to the editor, like so –
![how to write news article in an essay](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/313b1a2d81bd71b1636f6b309a018e35_06_33_41_28_08_2024-scaled.jpeg)
… you can make adjustments in terms of language, tone, and factual accuracy, and ensure it aligns with your publication’s style.
And there you have it, a ready-to-publish article with Narrato’s AI Chat.
4. Generate news articles from custom AI templates
Another way to create news articles on Narrato is by creating custom AI templates . In fact, you can turn the ChatGPT prompt (from the previous step) into an AI template to generate news articles at the click of a button. Here is how it works –
Step 1. Create the custom AI template for news article generation
Creating an AI template on Narrato is quite straightforward. Navigate to the ‘Custom AI templates’ section and select the option to create a new template.
![how to write news article in an essay](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/78f3fc127f26803d8f8b2d4e3e85e23b_06_33_46_28_08_2024-scaled.jpeg)
Now, you can give your AI template a name and description.
![how to write news article in an essay](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/416c5b62671a5df15e6477ba81b1c66a_06_33_51_28_08_2024-scaled.jpeg)
Now, just add the news article generation prompt, along with the variables and input format for these variables. The input format can be short text, long text, URL, and file.
![how to write news article in an essay](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/b9045d07a18b0b3233fa99c200122132_06_33_56_28_08_2024-scaled.jpeg)
This template will serve as a blueprint for all future AI generated news articles.
Step 2. Test your AI template
Before implementing your AI template in generating news articles, you should test it to see how well it performs. Input relevant information into the template and observe how the AI populates the template with content.
![how to write news article in an essay](https://narrato.io/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/5345cc46182e93a03aa7c53dca07bb06_06_34_01_28_08_2024-scaled.jpeg)
This step helps to identify any adjustments that need to be made to ensure the articles meet your expectations. Make necessary tweaks to perfect it.
Step 3. Generate your news article with the custom AI template
Now that your custom AI template is created, you can start generating news articles with it. Simply go to the ‘My Templates’ section on Narrato’s AI writer, select your custom template, and input relevant information.

‘Enough is enough’: Full text of President Murmu's statement on Kolkata rape-murder case
President droupadi murmu urged the nation to “wake up” and end crime against women as she issued her first statement on the kolkata rape-murder case..
President Droupadi Murmu on Wednesday issued her first statement on the horrific rape and murder of a junior doctor in Kolkata which sparked nationwide outrage. President Murmu urged the country to “wake up” to the “perversion” of crimes against women, expressing her dismay over the case.

The hard-hitting article, titled “Women’s Safety: Enough is Enough”, is the first time the president issued a statement on the Kolkata rape-murder case, which sent shockwaves across the nation and sparked protests by students and doctors.
Read more: President Murmu reacts to Kolkata doctor rape-murder case: ‘Enough is enough’
President murmu's statement: full text.
The gruesome incident of rape and murder of a doctor in Kolkata has left the nation shocked. I was dismayed and horrified when I came to hear of it. What is more depressing is the fact that it was not the only incident of its kind; it is part of a series of crimes against women. Even as students, doctors and citizens were protesting in Kolkata, criminals remained on the prowl elsewhere. The victims include even kindergarten girls. No civilised society can allow daughters and sisters to be subjected to such atrocities. The nation is bound to be outraged, and so am I.
On the occasion of Women’s Day last year, I had shared my thoughts and hopes about women’s empowerment in the form of a newspaper article. I remain an optimist, thanks to our past achievements in empowering women. I consider myself as an example of that spectacular journey of women empowerment in India. But I myself feel deeply anguished when I hear about brutality against women in any part of the country.
More recently, I was in a unique predicament when some schoolchildren who had come to celebrate Rakhi at the Rashtrapati Bhavan asked me innocently if they could be assured that there would be no recurrence of the Nirbhaya-type incident in future. I told them that though the State is committed to protect every citizen, training in self-defence and martial arts is essential for all, particularly girls, to make them stronger. But that’s not a guarantee for their security as women’s vulnerability is influenced by many factors. Obviously, the full answer to that question can come only from our society.
For that to happen, what is needed first of all is honest, unbiased self-introspection. The time has come when we as a society need to ask ourselves some difficult questions. Where have we erred? And what can we do to remove the errors? Without finding out the answer to that question, the half of our population cannot live as freely as the other half.
To answer it, let me explain it right at the beginning. Our Constitution granted equality to all, including women, when it was only an ideal in many parts of the world. The State then created institutions to establish this equality, wherever needed, and promoted it with a series of schemes and initiatives. Civil society came forward and supplemented the State’s outreach in this regard. Visionary leaders in all spheres of society pushed for gender equality. Finally, there were exceptional, feisty women who made it possible for their less fortunate sisters to benefit from this social revolution. That has been the saga of women’s empowerment.
Yet, this journey has not been without its obstacles. Women have had to fight for every inch of ground they have won. Social prejudices as well as some customs and practices have always opposed the expansion of women’s rights. This is a rather deplorable mindset. I won’t call it a male mindset, because it has little to do with the gender of the person: there are many, many men who don’t have it. This mindset sees the female as a lesser human being, less powerful, less capable, less intelligent. Those who share such views then go further and see the female as an object.
It is this objectification of women by a few that is behind the crimes against women. It is ingrained deeply in the minds of such people. Let me also note here that, regrettably, this is the case not only in India, but across the world. Difference between one place and the next is more of a degree than kind.
Countering this mindset is a task for both the State and the society. In India, over the years, the two have fought hard to change the wrong attitude. There have been laws and there have been social campaigns. Yet, there is something that continues to come in the way and to torment us.
In December 2012, we had come face to face with that element when a young woman was gang-raped and murdered. There was shock and rage. We were determined not to let another Nirbhaya meet the same fate. We made plans and devised strategies. These initiatives did make a difference to an extent. Yet, our task remains unfinished as long as any woman feels unsafe in the environment where she lives or works.
In the twelve years since that tragedy in the national capital, there have been countless tragedies of similar nature, though only a few drew nationwide attention. Even these were soon forgotten. Did we learn our lessons? As social protests petered out, these incidents got buried into a deep and inaccessible recess of social memory, to be recalled only when another heinous crime takes place.
This collective amnesia, I am afraid, is as much obnoxious as that mindset I spoke of.
History often hurts. Societies scared to face history resort to collective amnesia to bury their heads in the sand like the proverbial ostrich. Now the time has come not only to face history squarely but also to search within our souls and probe the pathology of crime against women.
I am of the firm belief that we should not let amnesia prevail over the memory of such criminality. Let us deal with this perversion in a comprehensive manner so as to curb it right at the beginning. We can do this only if we honour the memory of the victims by cultivating a social culture of remembering them to remind us of our failures in the past and prepare us to be more vigilant in future.
We owe it to our daughters to remove the hurdles from their path of winning the freedom from fear. Then we can collectively give a firm answer to the innocent query of those children in the next Raksha Bandhan. Let us collectively say enough is enough.

This Is Who Kamala Harris Fails
![how to write news article in an essay An sign that says “Abandon Harris, Ceasefire Now” on a table.](https://static01.nyt.com/images/2024/08/28/multimedia/28alyan-wftq/28alyan-wftq-articleLarge.jpg?quality=75&auto=webp&disable=upscale)
By Hala Alyan
Dr. Alyan is a clinical psychologist and professor in New York City.
As a Palestinian American, I’ve watched with growing apprehension the recent rebranding and memeification of Kamala Harris: Look! Here’s a woman that does jubilant dances, is firmly intelligent, has the same guffaw as your mother . It’s endearing. It’s refreshing.
I’m not immune to the charms of American mythology. I spent much of my childhood in Midwestern suburbia, bred on romcoms and the glittering spectacle of professional wrestling. I, too, love the promise of a third act, a swooping hero, the prop of a good soundtrack. But for me to lean into the powerful marketing of the current vice president as a bastion of hope requires enormous amnesia — not only of this administration’s complicit funding of Palestinian slaughter, but of Ms. Harris’s own track record on criminal reform , immigration and law enforcement .
Because even in those Midwestern suburbs I was also Palestinian, raised on stories of the Nakba, land theft, a boy burned alive , a young American woman mangled by an Israeli bulldozer , the searing image of a man trying to protect his son from flying bullets . Harris’s viral quote on existing in your context is handy here: Palestinian Americans and their allies are bringing a context to this election. They carry a hope for ending Palestinian oppression that feels almost futile, but irresponsible to abandon, and a memory that extends past a few glitzy weeks.
The Democratic National Convention was a visually and sonically arresting display, full of bright-eyed, stirring speeches on race, identity, democracy — including a moving speech by the parents of an Israeli hostage — and talk of social justice and liberation. It began with a land acknowledgment. And yet the word Palestine was only held, briefly, in the mouths of non-Palestinians. Mentions of a cease-fire in Gaza were urgent but vague, as though one would be midwifed via fervent prayer rather than the sober reconsideration of our nation’s active participation and funding of the current onslaught.
The most generous read of Ms. Harris vis-à-vis Palestinians is that she has inherited — versus had an active role in — a disastrous foreign policy on Gaza, and now must contend with hundreds of thousands of ambivalent voters who oppose it. There is no doubt Ms. Harris is more articulate than President Biden on the issue. In her speech accepting the Democratic nomination, she spoke of Palestinians’ devastation, of their displacement, their hunger, their right to “freedom” and “self-determination.” “The scale of suffering is heartbreaking,” she said.
I appreciate Ms. Harris’s broken heart. What I’d appreciate more is a direct naming of who is killing and starving Palestinians, acts that are neither inevitable nor without a perpetrator. I’d appreciate the upholding of international law through sanctions and an arms embargo. It’s hard to abide the passive framing of Palestinian death in the same speech that reasserts a nuclear power’s right to defend itself — a “defense” that in the past few months has included both American and Israeli representatives calling to level Gaza, mobs rioting to defend the rights of soldiers accused of raping a Palestinian prisoner , and bombs shredding hundreds of starving children in refugee camps.
