Essay: What are the impacts of using pictures in newspaper articles?
Hey guys, it would be very great if someone could correct this essay :)
Due to the digitalisation of a lot of articles, there is an increasing number of pictures used in newspapers. How does this
affect effect the consumer?
Illustrations are for most people more interesting than just a
huge site full of text. Hence ("Therefore" is more common), for the news agency it is a good opportunity to make the newspapers more attractive to buy.
But Also the consumer takes advantage, because pictures can be a good visual
ly support aid for reading the article, for example to see
how the people mentioned in the article look in the article mentioned people look like.
It is scientifically proven that images have a much greater effect
to on people than text because the brain perceive
s them in
another a different way.
That This can be
used positive as well as negative.
Nowadays
, especially terrorists
utilize use this, because their aim is to spread fear
s. So, when people see the pictures of a terrorist attack, they feel often much less safe even though the
possibility to be involved ("chance of being involved" flows better) in such an attack is lower than winning
in the lottery.
However, there is also the chance to
affect effect people in positive way and raise the awareness of a problem. So, to convince people to think about their waste and the environmental impact
; it can be helpful to show them the polluted ocean and the hole in
the ozone layer.
In conclusion, the decision whether to print pictures or not, should be
taken made based on depending on the topic. Nevertheless, for
a newspaper agency it is a
n effective way to increase the selling numbers by making the articles seem more attractive.
Really well done!
A few notes:
Affect is an adjective, so its used instead of "effect" which is a verb. "I am effecting change in our company" vs "I was affected by the storm last week"
A lot of the changes I made were making it flow better and sound more natural, but your ideas are very easy to understand. There was only one section that I had to focus on understanding: "in the article mentioned people look like". Also a few of the strikethrough's are from overusing some words like "much" "very" and so on. It's not technically wrong but it doesn't really sound right.
Cheers!
