-report of someone's actions, or of an event, which has not been previously reported, and which interests or affects significant segments of the community or audience.
Webster's Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary defines news as:
-a report of recent events.
-material reported in a newspaper.
-matter that is newsworthy
Authenticity and Accuracy
No ethical reporter would fabricate a story, or make readers believe that something happened when it did not.
Additionally, reporters obtain their facts and information from the most credible sources available, thus increasing authenticity and accuracy. Reporters ensure that their articles are meaningful and in agreement with reality.
Errors in fact, mistakes, might be made by the inexperienced reporter. However, they cant be tolerated. Accuracy is an unrelenting requirement, not only because the reputation of the reporter and newspaper are at stake, but because the reader demands the right to believe what he reads.
GOOD TASTE
Good reporters display courtesy, good taste and respect towards and on behalf of their audience through their writing.
The reporter's copy will avoid vulgarities and obscenities. His reporting will be neither callous, nor hardened or obnoxious.
Professional reporters don't confuse complete, objective reporting with caustic or gory accounts of news events.
MASS APPEAL
One of the basic facets of news is that it be or worth to significant segments of the audience.
Mass appeal is comprised of 10 elements; sometimes referred to as the "Elements of News."
1. Immediacy
2. Proximity
3. Consequence
4. Prominence
5. Suspense
6. Oddity
7. Sex
8. Conflict
9. Emotion
10. Progress
THE NEWS PEG
The dominant element of news is often called "the News Peg or Angie." Once the writer analyzes a news event for its newsworthiness, he will want to determine which element within the story is most important. That element becomes his news peg.
However, these elements of news are not independent or exclusive of each other. They intertwine and support each other. It is difficult to use them separately.
WHAT MAKES A GOOD JOURNALIST?
Journalism isn't an 8-to-5 job. The aspiring journalist will find himself working long hours to develop his story. Many newsworthy events don't occur during normal "duty" hours.
