News is new information or current events. The reporting of news falls into the field of journalism. News can be reported by a variety of sources, such as newspapers, television and radio programs, wire services, and web sites.

If the content of news is significant enough, it eventually becomes history.

Newsworthiness


To be considered newsworthy, an event usually must have broad interest due to one or more news values:-

  • Effect (how many people were, are or will be affected?)
  • Timeliness (did the event occur very recently?)
  • Revelation (is there significant new information, previously unknown?)
  • Proximity (was the event nearby geographically?)
