storytelling 2 - digging up bits and pieces
About a year ago on Andrew Marr's Start the Week, one of his guests compared archaeologists to storytellers: they dig up isolated bits and pieces and try to arrange them in a way which somehow tells a story in order to make sense of them all.
Put it another way: journalists are like archaeologists, in that they dig up a selection of facts, and put them into some kind of order, in order to tell a story - which not only helps to make sense of them, it makes them memorable.
How to do this? See storytelling 1 !
