writing for visual medium

I think writing for any medium is the most difficult part of journalism and yet it is the oldest practiced. Now people just don't have the time to sit down and read an article about something they can easily get in a short blurb version or watch a short video on. We are increasingly becoming a very visual culture and more and more people are either wanting pictures to go with a story or to just have a story be done in TV form.

The problem is trying to find a story that would be better suited written in print rather than done for TV or the web. And those stories that are better suited for print are usually ones that are boring. It really is up to the writer and how good of a journalist/writer they are to take advantage of what they have and make something boring that some people might normally might not want to read, to make it enjoyable to read. 

If an article is something that will go along with a TV or radio story it needs to add an element that the other's don't and that is why it is so hard to be in print journalism because the article needs to bring something else to the table that the others don't.
