The Newsroom

Write a short newscast. Select three (and only three) current news stories. Select the three stories that you think are the most important to our nation and society.

• Write an original headline for each story.
• Write no more than three sentences summarizing each story.
• Include the full html web address for each story.

*It is very important to only write on three stories and keep your summaries under three sentences as this simulates how challenging it is to explain very complicated new stories in very restricted time and keeping the attention of viewers.

Your initial post will look something like this:

Catchy Headline #1

Summary sentence 1. This is the second sentence. And finally a third sentence.
