American journalism 101
First lesson, only use the facts. However you can word tham as you please to make a story.
Example:
Yesterday Meg and I was playing around, her ring bumped me on the skull (sounded wild
)
I also went to the store, on the way back I saw a police car and waved. He didn't see me though.
Finally the cat was on my lap and slipped, leaving a little scratch on my leg.
Now these do not sound like a story, however using only the facts and arranging them however we want (just like the big news sites), we end up with this.
Yesterday Meg attacked her husband and hit him with her ring. He now has a 2 inch scratch. The police would not respond.
