    Wire Story: A story written by a reporter working for another publication or a national news service, then sent (by telegraph, in the old days) nationwide.

    Centerpiece (who has the biggest cat in Boise): (also called a lead story). Editors decided that this was the top story of the day – either because of newsworthiness or reader appeal – so it gets the best play and the biggest headline on Page One. Notice how this story isn’t about a current event; it’s a type of feature story called a follow-up.

    Index: One of the last page elements that copy editors produce before sending the paper off to the press.

    Cutline: (also called a caption). Information about the photo is often collected by photographers but written by copy editors or reporters.

    Headline: The big type, written by copy editors, that summarizes the story.

    Byline: The reporter’s name, often followed by credentials. Many papers require that stories be a certain length – or written by a staffer – to warrant a byline.

    Infographic: These informational graphics display key facts from the story in a visual way. At big papers, they’re created by artists; at smaller papers, they’re produced by editors or reporters.

    Lead: (also spelled lede). The opening of a story. Here, this news lead condenses the key facts of the event into the first paragraph.

    Quote: Someone’s exact words, usually spoken to the reporter during an interview.

    Attribution: A phrase that tells readers the source of a quote OR the source of information used in the story.
    Photo: Photos are either shot by staff photographers or purchased from nation wire services. Most newspaper photos run in black-and-white, since color printing is more expensive; online, most photos are in color.

    Photo Credit: A line stating the photographer’s name (often adding the paper he or she works for).

    Liftout Quote: (also called a pullquote). A quotation from the story that’s given special graphic emphasis.
