reporter and journalist
I'm confused about the difference between presenter, broadcaster, and announcer;
and the difference between reporter and journalist. Your answer must be very helpful
for me. Thanks.
Hi Suharno,
All these words are used to describe people who work in the media. The first three:
presenter, broadcaster and announcer are all related to TV and radio: media which is
delivered partly  or wholly  through sound and speech (this type of media is
increasingly available on internet too).
A presenter is a person who introduces or hosts television or radio programmes. A
presenter's opening words on a programme are usually something like Good
evening, and welcome to[name of show] with me [name of presenter]. On tonight's
show we will be... [presenter talks about the content of the programme]. The topic
of the programme is not all about the presenter. The presenter is the person who
introduces the programme, introduces or links sections of the programme together
and says goodbye at the end. Some well-known presenters include Johnny Carson
(an American TV chat show host), Trevor MacDonald (a British TV news presenter),
and Karim Kouchouk (the presenter of BBCe for BBC Learning English Arabic
Service).
An announcer's job is similar to that of a presenter. He or she provides spoken
information about news, weather, programme content, links between programmes,
advertising etc. However, an announcer may have a smaller role in a programme
than a presenter does: on TV programmes, an announcer may only feature as a
voice whereas a presenter will be seen on the screen. Another main difference
between an announcer and a presenter is that the announcer usually reads word-for-
word from a script, whereas a presenter may have some flexibility regarding the
145
things they say.
The word broadcaster can refer to an organisation such as the BBC (UK) or NBC
(USA) which produces television and radio programmes. It can also be used to
describe someone who is well-experienced in the TV and radio industry. He or she
usually has multiple talents  scriptwriting, directing, presenting etc. and his or her
programmes may be considered to be very important and well-respected. Famous
British broadcasters include Sir David Attenborough, Sir Robert Winston and Sir
David Frost, and Larry King in the USA. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
