Hi There! :)

How did journalism affect modernist style?

 <span>It was felt to be so shocking and inhumane, so contrary to human life that the old forms of writing would not suffice. Poems with a connected set of images or thoughts, narratives with the usual kind of resolutions, plays that focused on a single, defined plot were outmoded. They could not express the horrific consequences of being killed by a bomb from above, or murdered indifferently in a combat in which neither of the participants had any vested interest. 

Thus you get books like Joyce's _Ulysses,_ in which the action consists of everyday doings and the thoughts of people given the reader without, seemingly, any interference on the part of the author, or poems like _The Waste Land,_ where Eliot offers a few "fragments" "to shore against...ruins."</span>
