what kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

Comparing Heart on 21st January and SJDJ radio news task.

I believe are 5 minute news product would be distributed by Heart. Heart radio uses the same radio news conventions which we have used. We start the news with a jingle and then go on to international news. Both heart and SJDJ cover stories about international news, for example, heart talks about the Hatti disaster in a small content however SJDJ uses a number of stories about the Hatti disaster. (This is continuity; this is a story with legs, where the story keeps going on with different headlines.)

However, Heart radio only did one international story where SJDJ has used 2. SJDJ has also used the subject of Cadburys and Kraft. This is giving information to people who may not know about the change.

We have also used the convention of local news; heart uses this with the story of a person who was put into prison for defending his family. SJDJ uses local news with the stories about the Westgate shopping centre and also about the stabbing outside the four candles.

One thing SJDJ uses but Heart does not is sport news. We used 3 small news flashes. But they are not as long as the other news bulletins because people are not that interested but people do like to know what is going on.

We also used weather and travel, Heart also uses weather and travel. This is to inform the local people about travel and were they need to try and avoid driving. Weather is used so people are peppered for all weather which may happen.
