Narrative analysis applied to text production


 The following paper adopts the vantage point of a linguistic ethnographic approach to news production, focused on
 the process of quoting, and combined with narrative analysis. The starting point of the analysis is an account given by a person
 who lived through a dramatic event. The paper investigates how the processes of recontextualization affects the account during the
 making of a broadcast news story. It explains how and why news practitioners adjust stretches of talk to the news text they are
 producing, and it reveals to what extent a pre-existing version of what happened (that of the account) can be reshaped by one in
 the making (that of the news story in which the account is going to figure). In the case study, the processes of
 recontextualization relates to three narrative issues: (1) quoting involves adapting the account’s characters’ categorizations to
 those of the news story; (2) quoting entails choosing between different schemes of incidence that depict what happened slightly
 differently; (3) quoting asks for a delimitation of the account’s spatiotemporal parameters that corresponds with those of the
 news story. Such a narrative adjustment is neither a tightly planned nor an arbitrary process but is embedded in the professional
 practice as it unfolds in the social and material world.
