The range of data investigated in the treatment of English Intonation has been rather too restricted, and emphasis has always been on the expressive or attitudinal function. Besides, the studies have often relied on data collected through isolated utterances and have rarely focused on genre-specific discourse, especially from nativized contexts. This paper investigates the importance of intonation in interactive professional communication, in an attempt to develop a system of discourse intonation analysis for news broadcast genres
