The ABC World News Report from 1990 was much more simpler than the CNN Report from 2008. ABC’s report got right to the point. Their broadcast was well organized without any surprises. The colors on the screen were simple. The narrator of the video footage spoke slowly and it was very clear. The news anchor made a small mistake in wording and quickly corrected himself. It was almost unnoticeable. He didn’t stop to comment because he was on a script that was on a schedule. The CNN Report, however, was much more complex. The new system of 3 way chat was introduced. The script was not written for the guests. In a sense, you could say that it was uncensored. Interruptions between people on the air are now also common. The script for the broadcast is now simply a ground base. The words that were running constantly on the bottom of the screen were a distraction. Those lines simply alert the viewer of upcoming news. This information could be useful to the viewer. The reason why the CNN report was much more complex than the ABC report is because of the constant development of new technology. The report from 2008 clearly shows remediation. The script is not read off of entirely and the entire report is becoming more natural. This was talked about in the article about how an interface should become more realistic and ‘natural’. With breaking news, the reports have become more realistic as to what’s going on at the precise moment. The CNN report also asked for the opinions of the viewers. The article mentioned that it is presented so that the report may advance and become to the liking of the viewer. I would say that unscripted news are most definitely an example of remediation.
