When journalists tell stories, they rarely start at the beginning but instead with the latest development. Context comes towards the end. It\u2019s called the \u2018inverted pyramid\u2019.
When scandal at the Confederation of British Industry hit the newspapers and boss Tony Danker was dismissed, he complained that articles didn\u2019t state right at the start that he was not accused of the worst misconduct. If you didn\u2019t make it much past the headlines, you might not realise that.\n \nWe discover why journalists write stories \u2018the wrong way up\u2019, how that affects how we understand them, and how that might change with new technology.
\u2018How to Read the News\u2019 - this series is all about giving you the tools to decode the news.
