When Television Became Colorful

By Linda Ruggie

Today, nearly all television programs are broadcast in color. If you turn on a
baseball game, you can see that the grass on the field is green, or that the
pitcher has a blue cap on. But when your grandparents were children, most
people watching TV at home could not have seen any of those colors. Television
.programs were broadcast in black-and-white only

Television sets that could broadcast in color have been around for a long time.
An engineer named John Logie Baird invented a color TV set in the 1930sBut
the picture on Baird’s TV flickered and was not clear. Companies would not sell
.a TV that was not good quality

For many years, people worked to improve how color televisions worked. Over
time, companies found ways to make the picture clearer. The improvements
also meant that a user could turn a dial to add just the right amount of color to
.the picture

By the late 1960s, many people were buying color televisions. Soon, most TV
shows were being broadcast In color, and most people in the U.”. had color TV
.sets

Today, it’s unusual to find any television show that Is still broadcast In black-
!and-white. Now the world of television is full of color

 EXPLAIN
A feature article offers insights about people, places, things, or events that we encounter
daily but to which we pay little attention. It exposes human emotions or feelings. It focuses on
the most interesting, not necessarily the most important, and part of a story. It is a creative
article that deals with real events, issues, and trends. However, unlike straight news articles, it
emphasizes the people involved rather than on the facts of the news.
The Parts of a Feature Article

Let us go back to the previous questions asked about the article, "When
Television Became Colorful".
What is the title of the article?
The title of the article is, “When Television Became Colorful”. It covers the whole idea of the feature
article and is also catchy for the reader’s eye. This is also known as the headline or the head of the
article.
What is the byline of the article?
The byline of the article is Linda Ruggieri, and it is written below the title or headline. This shows
the author’s name. The byline can also be written at the end of the article.
What part of the article is the introduction?
The first paragraph is the introduction. It leads to the readers into the story.
How about the body of the article?
The body of the article is from the second, third, and fourth paragraphs. Having got the readers
hooked at the start, keep them reading. This is where the writer’s skill in creating a logically
progressed narrative comes into play. Each paragraph will move the story along and add to the
reader’s information. Embed facts into scenes, so that something new is revealed with each
paragraph.
How about the conclusion of the article?
The last paragraph is the conclusion of the article where it was mentioned that nowadays, the
world of television is full of color! You should have a satisfactory ending so that the reader
understands that the story has concluded.
