Onlooker(s),
By the end of my first official day I edited many pages for the publication which will come out on Friday.
From Ashley's suggestion, I am going to look up the AP Associated Press Stylebook. This is pretty much the NCNews' Bible, I think that everyone has a copy.
What I edited today:
columns (paid a lot of attention to Mr. Turpin's because.. well I can't tell you because that would be breaching the press..)
letters to the editor (feisty letters)
obituaries (formating them.)
press releases (a ton)
articles (news)
I also looked at the formating of the layout and had to make sure lines matched up.
I referenced Strunk and White a lot. Mainly the same pages as before.
Still working on interviews for Toy Story and the opinions piece. Looking for good references on that and will report back with links on a further date.
Reporting live from the New Canaan News - news room,
