Language diversity in journalism, which is also called the language of newspapers or mass media language, it is suspected to have short sentences and short paragraphs, the language was good to read. Beyond that basic journalistic ethics demanded that the language in mass media implies honesty, warm, accurate, courteous, is not justified using harsh words, or hurt someone else. Quotations should not be arbitrarily altered without any reason let alone fundamental.
Through the book "The sentence of Journalism: A Handbook for Writing Observing this Story" written by AM Dewabrata, elaborated guidelines to be considered in formulating sentences journalism.
1. Use a clear and crisp sentences.
In journalistic sentences sentences sentences using a clear and crisp, not complicated, not cloudy, words and sentences popular. Sentence used to be sentences that flow and are not clogged.
2. Use appropriate language style news.
For "soft news", for example, features, insert a style that is attractive, so that readers will not waste your news. News "hard news", style of language used is the style that gives a certain impression and atmosphere.
3. Use sentences that can be understood
In writing a story, a journalist must always assume the reader does not know anything, do not have the slightest reference to digest the news that are served. Therefore, one reporter would pour more information and best possible news. This was to avoid deceiving and misleading readers.
4. Note the accuracy of the news.
A news should be accurate, because if not, the news does not deserve to be trusted. Accuracy includes the accuracy of quoted source of news and data and facts. Accuracy is a reflection of a sense of responsibility of the author (reporters), and the media concerned. Inaccuracies in the news could lead to confusion and can also harm others. Mention the source of the news and on occasion provided the information or statement is called attribution or "credit line". This was necessary because the reader obtain a description of where the information gained, and what can be trusted or not.
5. Choose the right word.
1. Notice the use of the word no.
Notice the use of the word no, because the word is functioning negate (negate) the meaning behind it. In this sentence is not journalistic said, should be placed closest to the word that negated. Nevertheless, the necessary precision to put the word in a sentence is not journalistic so that we can display the correct language of the journalistic variety, which put the clarity of the message.
2. Said to tend.
The selection of words to be used in the preparation of news sentences should consider the tendency of its connotation. The word neglect, neglect, and abuse, both have meanings do not want to follow or not paying attention. But, each word was a different connotation and also brought a different message payload, so the sentence is formed with that word will also display differences and nuances.
3. Said levies (adoption)
Adopting foreign words and local, or create a new word, should notice the minds of Indonesian. Therefore, to equate it must consider how and what the best message to be conveyed through the news is understandable.
6. Note also the word thrift.
Said that long-winded and full of words of small talk, not suitable for writing news and media content in general. Because it is very important to write a short story, solid, pithy, clear, and clean. Redundant words which must be removed, the sentence really long and wasteful must be shortened. But it's not set in stone considering flexibility of a mass media. Sometimes a short sentence if it would lengthen clarify the meaning of a sentence. Benchmark which is really just a matter of clarity of the contents of news, so the message to the reader perfectly.
Things mentioned above need to be taken by people who would jump at the world of journalism. Because through the mass media, directly or indirectly, a journalist is an educator for the community. If educators are clever and intelligent method, then there is hope that people get the knowledge from mass media to be too clever.
