Reporting meaning

Reporting means collection or gathering of facts about current events or background material required for a news story or feature.

Reporters do it through interviews, investigations and observation. Reporters are given directions by editors to cover a particular event, known as assignments. They may be general assignments or special ones. Reporters write the news stories, which are called copies.
