Listicle
In journalism and blogging, a listicle is an article that is structured as a list, which is often fleshed out with additional text relating to each item. A typical listicle will prominently feature a cardinal number in its title, with subsequent subheadings within the text itself reflecting this schema. The word is a portmanteau derived from ''list'' and ''article''. It has also been suggested that the word evokes " popsicle", emphasising the fun but "not too nutritious" nature of the listicle. A ranked listicle (such as ''Rolling Stone''s "The 100 Best Albums of the Last 20 Years") implies a qualitative judgement, conveyed by the order of the topics within the text. These are often presented in countdown order, and the "Number One" item is the last in the sequence. Other listicles impart no overt rank, instead presenting the topics in an ''ad hoc'', associative, or thematic order. Media While conventional reportage and essay-writing often require the careful crafting of narrative ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
