Question

Amber is a spokeswoman for a large corporation that has been in the news lately for allegedly engaging in illegal business practices. She is giving an official statement to the press that will be broadcast on national television. Which method of delivery should Amber choose in this situation and why?

Answer 1

I would choose manuscript style for this. the reason for that is because you know exactly what you're going to say you can't be misquoted because everything is written down right in front of you and this is a more formal style

Answer 2

There are four different types of delivery: manuscript, memorized, extemporaneous, and impromptu.

1. Manuscript-speech is written and speaker reads it word for word, helps eliminate error
2. Memorized- speech committed to memory and spoken verbatim.
3. Extemporaneous- a speech that is given based on bullet points
4. Impromptu- a speech made up on the spot

Since Amber is a spokesperson for a large corporation that has been in the news lately for allegedly engaging in illegal business practices, it would be best if she used the manuscript method for her speech. This will allow her to be well-prepared and helps eliminate errors as she speaks. This is especially important because what she said could be misinterpreted if not carefully spoken.
