Whoever's written the job ad for a BBC News Editor in Washington DC needs to go on a plain English course.
"The News Editor will be expected to redefine and reimagine the relationship between digital and linear news on every platform by taking advantage of the power of visual storytelling both on air and online, use social media as a means of newsgathering and sourcing stories, and implement the importance of transparency in every aspect of our journalism as an integral part of news verification and authenticity."
The text has an average readability score below 20/100 on Flesch Kincaid. 29% of the words used are rated 'complex', and according to analysis at tradingaswdr blog headquarters, they've been arranged in a way that produces only marginal discernable meaning.
