Bridge Writers

In my chosen field writers are not the bridge they are what the field consists of. Without writers in journalism there would be no journalism. They are the backbone of news for the public. Journalist write for all publications such as newspapers, books and for broadcast on the television and radio. Writing is a very important part of the field. Without writing broadcast and print news would be nonexistent because it is the number one most important part of the journalists job.
In the workplace now writers are very useful because they can be used to fill in the gaps that are present. I work security and having someone who can write a report and know how to fill out documents when needed is very important. Unfortunately, many officers in law enforcement and security often fall short from being good writers, so having a good writer on staff to help with wording or to edit would be very useful for officers of all kinds.
Honestly, to answer the any other scenario question I can not think of any profession that cannot benefit from the use of good writers. Realtors, doctors, lawyers, teachers, and many other professions write in their professions.
Using the concept of “Writers as a Bridge,” writers can be used in many ways as a bridge. One specific way is that they can relay information from a source to the public such as what is done daily in the news or they could work in a hospital in billing and decoding where they take the medical jargon and decode it for the patients bills. Billing and decoding is probably the best example of what I can come up with for “Writers as a Bridge,” but really writers are just as much thinkers as a bridge as they are “Writers as a Bridge.”
Great post, Andi. Who do you think the “bridges” are in a newsroom? I don’t know much about the structure of newspapers or other journalistic organizations. You’re right about medical billing and coding: I think a lot of people don’t realize that it’s really a writing job (and a translation job).
The only person I can think of that may be considered a bridge writer would be an editor. I guess you can say they work as the final polishers of all the articles that hit news.
or before the news is broadcasted.
