My stories
The aspect of news which I decided to focus on is religion and sport, as our target audience mentioned that they'd like to listen to newscasts which include stories on sports and religion.
Therefore I researched into local stories to do with religion.
I chose my hard story to be about a secondary and sixth form school who have recently been put under 'special measures' by Ofsted because the Islamic Society was linked with 'radical Islamic preachers'.
Before I go out to conduct my own research I first needed to do background research:
Due to this story being an old one I have recognised that there is an absence of the students' perspective, therefore I have chosen to produce a newscast regarding their views.
My second story which I wish to present is about a ping pong event hosted by a school in East London.
I chose this story as it Is about news in the local community which I know will keep my target audience interested. The event that took place was the qualifying for the finals, and the story I wish to present is going to be taking place in January in which I will present the scores of the match and winners.
