What is news?

I would define "news" as noteworthy, recent information regarding what's happening locally, nationally and/or around the world. If the material is based on old information, it should include new information that makes it relevant once again.

Good news should interest readers, affect people and always inform and educate the reporter's audience. If the story is well written and/or reported, it will contain a lead that forces people to take time out of their day to read the whole thing.
