MINI TASK: Inversion Pyramid

Jules asked some of us to define the term 'Inversion Pyramid'. I must say this was not as easy as I thought it would be. I went on-line both general and griffith library to no avail. I then asked a photographer friend of mine (via facebook) and he didn't know either! Finally I changed my search criteria and came up with this: (not sure if this is what Jules meant though)!

As explained by http://www.poynter.org the inverted pyramid was "Developed more than a century ago to take advantage of a new communications technology, the inverted pyramid remains a controversial yet widely used method of reporting news and will have a future in the 21st century.

The inverted pyramid puts the most newsworthy information at the top, and then the remaining information follows in order of importance, with the least important at the bottom."
