    Structure of a news story News is reported from the most important "who, what, where, when, why, and how" of a story to the least important so that the public does not have to wait to learn the most crucial facts.

    Structure of a news story

    Which facts might be most important to tell readers right away? Which could wait until the end of the story? Why?

    Example:
    When you watch, listen to, or read news reports of a disaster, what facts and details do you expect the reporter to include? What specific details and facts would you expect in a breaking news story ? Make a list of facts about the size of the earthquake and its damage to speculation on what types of people reporters might interview, etc.
