Journalism and argumentation writing craft — inverted pyramid, lede, nut graph, kicker, explainer framing, PAGE frames, Toulmin argument (claim/rebuttal/qualifier), Hegelian dialectic, BBC due impartiality. Use when writing or reviewing news/explainer pieces, landscape overviews, or issue analyses that fairly juxtapose opposing views, or when a strong lede, sound argument structure, or balanced conclusion is needed.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# journalism-writing

Writing craft drawn from news/explanatory journalism and argumentation traditions — narrative lead (Lede→Nut graph→Kicker), dialectical structure (thesis·antithesis·synthesis), argument quality (Toulmin), and fairness (BBC due impartiality). `criteria.json` is the SoT for each criterion's definition, comparator, and source. The shared parsing and wiki-global state that the deterministic checks (judge=A) rely on are injected by the orchestrator (the skill is content-type-agnostic). Examples are illustrative of the target English prose.

## Dialectic structure (jrn.thesis-antithesis · jrn.c-section-size · jrn.c-stance-naming · jrn.monitoring-balance)

Develop an issue as Hegelian thesis → antithesis → synthesis. State thesis and antithesis with explicit **Position A / Position B** bold labels (ko rendering: **A 입장 / B 입장**); add a **C — Mediation** label (ko: **C 중재**) only when a genuine convergence exists. The C paragraph must not run longer than the longer of A and B, so the convergence is not mistaken for the main clash. If C is not a synthesis but a meta-critique (weakening both sides at once, flagging interest bias), move it out of the dialectic frame — a

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add alfadur7/llm-wiki-newsroom/journalism-writing@sha256:8dae0c6194941c7c

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260716.a211934, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
