how to write a news story

• intro paragraph:it needs to be griping and have the most important bits of information
• Put the most newsworthy information at the top. The newest and most significant information goes at the top of a news article, with the background or smaller details of the story nearer the bottom.
• Quoting:need an interviewer and quote the best bits of the speech
