A newspaper outline should have: 1.a headline 2.A list of main ideas 3.a list of important details Attention! When you write a newspaper story you want the readers to notice it. So you give the reader a headline which is an interesting title that tells the reader what your topic is. Then you organize your ideas into paragraphs. Each para has a different main idea or purpose. Next put some details into each para. These details help the reader to better understand the main idea. One other thing to remember: a newspaper story gives the most important first and the least important news last. A newspaper story needs a headline to attract the reader’s attention since the reader may not have bought the newspaper before they read the headline. Newspaper stories and short stories are organized very differently. Usually a short story begins with small details and includes details later. A newspaper does the opposite. Both kinds of stories use para with the main idea. Point of view In a good newspaper story it is objective. In a short story it is subjective. Ex.
