Print Writing vs Radio Writing
NPR Script for the same story:President Bush says the buck stops with him, and he
takes responsibility for whatever mistakes the federalgovernment made in its response to Hurricane
Katrina.
After days of insisting this is no time for a blamegame, the President shifted his tone a bit. Standingalongside Iraqi President Jalal Talabani at the WhiteHouse, Mr. Bush took a question on Hurricane Katrina,
and answered by saying he takes responsibility for thefederal governments actions. He said he wants toknow how to better cooperate with state and localgovernment in the future. He did qualify his remarks,by saying he takes responsibility only to the extentthat his administration did anything wrong.

voices and ambient and natural sound, thepostcard allows audio documentary to do what
it does best: place the listener smack in themiddle of the sights, sounds, smells, and mood ofa place or an event.
