The styles of news programming can relate to many different factors covering all different subjects. The can also relate to the target audience of a radio show. Different kinds of radio styles will have a different type of language they will use depending on their audience. This is so the audience can understand what the Radio stations going on about and it makes it easier to listen to. The stories could relate on the nation scale if it is a national broadcaster. Local community radio stations will often broadcast local news which then will be delivered in a local dialect or often a regional accent so that the viewers will be able to understand. For example salford city news may use certain slang words such as mithering which mean annoying someone. Only people who live in salford/manchester will understand this slang word. Also Wales has there own radio stations where they just speak welsh which only welsh people will understand or people who can speak welsh.
Analysing
styles of radio news
·
related to audience;
This is the type of news that the radio station thinks applies to the audience, also it has to be relevant. For example Radio 1 could broadcast that new A-levels are announced by Michael Gove. By this Radio one would broadcast to colleges and universities due to the fact the trending topic is aimed at 16-29 year olds. Due to the target audience the radio presenter would use a certain type of language depending on which radio station it is. For example if Capital broad casted a news story which appealed to 16-29 he would use slang words such as 'innit' or 'loving it'. This is so it makes it easier to listen to for that age range.

community;
Alot of people can mistake community for also being local however the different between them both is that local would apply to manchester and community would apply to a certain place in Manchester such as Tyldesley. Community news would consist of locals goings on such as a fun fair which is in the area for the day which will inform people and persuade them to attend. Community news would also broadcast news about up and coming shops which are going to be built in the local area. Also local robbings and crimes will be broad casted so people know to stay alert.

A independent radio station such as Eccles college would broadcast small scale news. Small scale news is a type of news that isent of mass importance and only applys to certain people. For example if an animal escaped from eccles college and was on the loose around eccles college this would be broadcasted around the college. This therefore would be small scale news due to the fact it wouldnt apply to anybody else apart from the college.
