For this assignment I have completed listening diaries, which I listened to a range of Factual and News programmes. A factual programme is a something that entertains and informs an audience, and a news programme contains up to date facts about current goings on in the news in the world, globally and locally.
A factual programme has 1 or more presenters, that is suitable for the audience that they are targeting. The presenter(s) are usually relatable for the target audience;  for example, in the jokes that they might tell, the music interest, and things that are relevant to the show. The main purpose of a factually programme is to entertain, this means that it can contain lots of music, or sports talk, or what every the genre of the show is for a certain target audience.
A news programme usually has just one presenter, but then has several reporters and possibly a few correspondents, which all have different stories that they report separately. A news programme can contain vox-pops as well as interviews with outside parties, with experts comments and input on relevant stories.
