 The purpose of many media products is to communicate information to an audience, but the way in which information is presented will affect the way the audience understands, or even wants to receive, that information.
Depending on the context of the presentation, the same presentational technique might well have different effects.
If a Radio 4 newsreader used slang during a news bulletin, it might well offend some of the audience. If the bulletin reader on Radio 1 did not use slang occasionally, the audience might be equally confused. Similarly, if a television news presenter wore a t-shirt and jeans, the audience would respond differently than if that presenter wore a formal suit, even though the information being delivered was the same.

 The media is heavily reliant on presenters to communicate information whether on television, radio, video, online, through voice-overs or in person. Presenters are needed for a wide range of programmes, including news and current affairs, magazine and consumer programmes, documentaries, quiz shows, chat shows and, of course, for reading announcements in between programmes. They come from an equally wide range of backgrounds. Many are trained and experienced journalists, some previously actors or comedians, whilst others became experts in a particular field before becoming programme presenters. This is, therefore, not a job that new entrants to the industry are likely to find themselves doing and, though there are notable exceptions, for most it is a job to work towards and prepare for throughout the early years of a career.
