Writing for Radio...
Listening to the KBIA stories linked, I realized more than anything how much of a challenge it is for me, a print journalist and accustomed to the narrative style of the reader, to write for radio; it's an entirely different narration style than normal news stories. The basics are still there though; in the Neuticles story you could pick out an inverted pyramid and other basic elements of news writing. The challenge is to keep listeners' attention and still relay the most important information, much like television news.
