Feature Stories

I’m looking for a thorough “nuts-and-bolts” analysis of the writing. Think of this as a critique of the work, an analysis of the form, and thinking about why what you read was included in the story. The assignment should include a description of the article and your evaluation of the author’s writing style, research, sources included, storytelling technique, content, story subject, impact, what you did and didn’t like, and any improvements you think the author could have madeI want you to really focus on the lede and the scenes that are described in the story you ultimately pick. Tell me about them. Give an explanation for why you answer the question the way you do. (What about it? What about using the quote from someone who knew the main character? Why does it matter when it’s used in that spot in the story?)● Briefly, what is the story about?● What type of lede is in this article? How does it preview what the rest of the story is about? Specifically, how?Give examples of what you mean.● What sources were included in this article? Why do you think it was important to hear from these particular peoplefor this story?● Tell me about the quotes that were used. What do the quotes used add to the story? Which quotes made themost impact on you? Why? Who said them? What do you learn about the person from them?● Did the writer try to recreate any scenes in the story? How did the writer try to put you in that scene? What sensesdid the writer try to trigger? Was there dialogue?● How does the author handle moving the story in the sense of time? When does the story start? When, wheredoes the story end? Feature stories don’t have to move chronologically. They don’t have to begin when an event occurs. The story itself can begin as a flashback, a recreation of a scene. Or it can begin in the present day, after a character has gone through what they’ve gone through, but the rest of the story re-tells how they got to the present.The link to the article that the work is based on is:https://www.vanityfair.com/style/2020/11/the-oracle-of-britney-spears
