How news is made
News starts with an event. Journalists look for sources, check facts and hear every side. The editors choose what goes in, because space is limited.
You can start here straight away: you need nothing first.
Why
Why is one story on the front page of the paper and another nowhere? And how does a journalist know whether something is true?
Every day far more happens than fits in a newspaper, a news programme or on a news site. So someone has to choose.
If you know how news is made, you can better judge how reliable a report is. And you see the difference between a news report, an opinion and an advert.
