Создавать новые версии! (Заповедь № 8)
Представьте себе, что каждая новость – это алмаз, который можно по-разному обрабатывать и которым можно по-разному любоваться. Всякий раз, когда вы будете рассматривать его под другим углом или в ином освещении, он будет казаться вам новым камнем, оставаясь при этом все тем же алмазом.
(вольный перевод из Валери Геллер)
Самая распространенная претензия, которую предъявляют нам слушатели и зрители – многочисленные повторы в программах. Зачастую эти претензии вполне обоснованы. С другой стороны, важные новости должны повторяться в каждом выпуске. Сообщение о землетрясении или авиакатастрофе не может быть пропущено в выпусках последних известий в 10 и 11 часов, а затем опять появиться в 12. В процессе последовательной передачи информации новости, имеющие значимость, должны быть представлены в каждом обзоре последних событий.
