Business news is a form of journalism that covers the economic and financial activities of a society. It is one of the major areas of journalism, and its content is frequently published in newspapers, magazines and radio and television-news shows.
It can be distinguished from other kinds of journalism because it focuses on issues related to the business sector, which is widely defined as an area where people or organizations do commercial transactions and make money. This type of journalism includes reports, feature articles and opinion pieces that often deal with economic or political events.
The word “business” is derived from the Latin phrase busienssis, which means work and commerce. It can refer to anything that is used to earn a living, including businesses such as hotels or restaurants, as well as small-scale enterprises, such as individual shops and service companies.
A common use of business in everyday speech is to describe how many products or services a company sells, or how much money it makes. However, this isn’t the only definition of business: It can also be used to refer to any organization that seeks to gain profit by providing goods or services to consumers in exchange for payment.
Metier is a term that is often used to describe work done as part of an occupation or profession, especially when performed with zeal and dedication. It is often used in the same context as business, but it can be distinguished by its broader meaning: metier suggests that an occupation is followed with a definite purpose and a dedication to the task.
