520 $aFeature writing enables readers, listeners and viewers to appreciate the news. It involves their feelings as well as their minds. Feature writing enables readers, listeners and viewers to understand -- not merely to know. So what is feature writing? It's writing and reporting which answers the questions: "What was it like?" and/or "What does it mean?" A feature story provides a reader with the flavor of an event or the nature of a person, not just with the facts of what happened or to whom it happened. It carries the reader beyond the events and leads him to an understanding of them. - Introduction.
