The most efficient way to define any news story is to describe them in the from of the 5W's. Journalist uses this formula to unsure they are getting the full story.
The 5W's consist of:
Who did the story happen too?
What is it about?
Where did it take place?
When did it take place?
Why did it happen?
How did it happen?
When I next research a news's story I will ensure that I sure this formula of the 5W's as it will help me guarantee the story will consist of the main elements views are looking for.
Here is a story from the BBC that I have analysed using the 5W's.
