The following is a project that will examine journalism in film through two films: "Capote" and "All the President's Men."
In keeping with the theme, it will be written in journalistic style, with many brief paragraphs. All writing will conform to AP Style, and text in all paragraphs will be justified. Also, section will be written with a headline and a lede paragraph, briefly describing the most important information.
Two main themes will be examined-- reporting styles and methods and the newsroom/publisher atmosphere.

Reporting styles and methods
All journalists have different methods and styles of reporting. A lot of these styles depend on the type of information being gathered and the type of story. The goal of any good reporter is to, of course, answer the "5 W's and the H": Who, What, Where, When, Why and How.
A lot of how a story is reported has to do with the assignment from the editor, and if there is no specific assignment, it is all based on what the journalist is trying to tell the reader.
This part of the project will examine the reporting practices of Woodward and Bernstein in "All The President's Men" and Truman Capote in "Capote."

Newsroom/Publisher atmosphere
Each newsroom or publisher atmosphere is different, just like reporting styles and methods.
In a newsroom, the goal is meeting deadlines and accuracy. Publishers have the same goal but with a different attitude.
Examined will be the atmosphere of two different approaches to investigative journalism. There is the hard-nosed approach from "All the President's Men" and the more casual, while still probing, atmosphere in "Capote."
Obviously, each film will be different, but the goal, to report a story, is the same for both.
