Sky News - News Values

Six News Values.


News value 1:





This is bad news as it involves both a natural disaster and death. This story could also come under 'Closeness To Home' as some people may have relatives that live or are from that country.

Closeness To Home: Ed Miliband - Sky News




This is a story that is closer to home as people in the UK are going to care more about the elections as it is happening in the UK and people in the United States wouldn't really care about it. This could also be a story that fits into 'Immediacy' because as soon as the politicians deliver the speech, it is in the news.

Immediacy: Taiwand Plane Crash: Passenger Jet Hits Bridge


Simplicity: Nurse Jailed For Life After Stepping Hill Deaths


Uniqueness:  Mum Disciplines her son after he joins the riot - Sky News




This is unique as some mothers wouldn't really care if their sons were involved in a riot however, this mother, in front of everyone, put her son straight. It is an unusual story that made it to the news because it has a video to go with it.
