reportage

[minnie2007]

it is better to say reportage on a subject or reportage about?
For instance: a reportage about september 11th or reportage on september 11th

[Anglika]

"A report on something" - report=a written/spoken account

"Reportage about something" - reportage = the reporting of news by press or media

They are different.

Another thing: 'reportage' is uncountable (except, possibly , when referring to the genre of a piece of work: 'The winner of first prize was a reportage on life in the barrio' (I'm really not sure about this; I've met it a few times though.)).

And another thing; the pronunciation reflects the French - /ɑ:ʒ/ not /ɪʤ/.

Oh that's interesting. I mean reportage being uncountable (I hadn't considered it....that' s why I wrote "a reportage..." et its French pronounciation!
