Business Articles
When researching Business Articles, i noticed quite a few differences between the business articles and other news stories. The biggest, most obvious difference between the two is the audience. News stories are written for the general public, and as such, include much more background information. An example of that is by stating which district Michelle Bachmann is a Congressional Representative of. Business Articles, on the contrary, have a target audience. Because business articles know who there audience consists of, it allows them to tailor their stories to a more specific tone. More is assumed knowledge in business articles. Stats and quotes are used from more scholarly sources, and quotes and stats tend to be less colorful and more informative. The conclusion i gathered from business articles is that they are more informative, educational, and overall better sources of information than news stories, because they recognize who their target audience is, and tailor their stories to best fit that audience.
