Writing the first recount paragraph of a journalistic report about the Titanic

An introductory sentence explains what the paragraph is about. Relative clauses give more detail about the sentence’s subject and they begin with relative pronouns ‘who’ or ‘which’. Conveying extra information (parenthesis) inside brackets is a tool for giving the reader lots of specific information. Journalistic reports are formal in tone and they communicate information to the reader in a clear, succinct way. Journalistic tone is objective; the journalist does not offer their own personal opinion.
