Greetings!
I've perused your job posting and can confidently say that I'm eminently qualified for this exciting challenge. I have a master's degree in economics as well as a website with a journalistic bent. As an economist, my writing specialties include finance, stock market reports, investment analysis, public/private sector analysis, manufacturing/industry, research and development, accounting, political economy, bilateral and multilateral trade, forex, virtual currencies, marketing, petroleum economics and many other areas. However, I'm versatile enough to quickly adapt to any news area, be it sports, agriculture, health, education, science and technology, artificial intelligence, machine learning and so on.
The inverted pyramid method is very popular in journalism albeit not exclusive to journalists alone. This method or structure of presentation demands that the most important news items as well as the conclusion be positioned at the top of the article. Also known as front loading, this style can be very helpful for writers and editors seeking to conserve newspaper space to accommodate other stories and sections. This is because locating the main thesis and the conclusion at the top of the pyramid allows them the room to shorten the story if there is need to do so. Front loading also enables the reader to grab the most salient information or message in the news item without necessarily having to read from up to bottom.
Sample newspaper-style articles are available.
