Exhibitions were held of the photographs in London and Paris; wood engravings of some of them were printed in the Illustrated London News; prints pasted on paper mounts with engraved titles, were sold by Agnew. The London Times wrote: "The photographer who follows in the wake of modern armies must be content with conditions of repose and with the still life which remains when the fighting is over."
The adoption of the halftone was slow, however, due more to stylistic than technical reasons. Readers preferred the wood engravings as more "artistic." Interviewed in 1893 on the subject, the editor of The Illustrated Lor, News stated: "I think the public will in time bee tired of mere reproductions of photographs.... It is intention to introduce into the pages of the lllustr, London News more wood-engravings than have peared in the past."
News directors and news editors have the most responsibility at all-news or news and information stations. They supervise the gathering of news from a variety of sources and make sure that the news is presented in the proper broadcasting style. All-news radio stations maintain large staffs of reporters and producers who gather and produce news stories. Editors and writers at these stations write and rewrite news stories into broadcast language and prevent repetition of a story in exactly the same language.
