News Values

1. Timeliness
Article: In France, a baby switch and a test of a mothers love
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/02/25/world/europe/in-france-a-baby-switch-and-a-test-of-a-mothers-love.html?ref=world&_r=0
I think this article relates to timeliness because timeliness is the newness of the facts. This is the most updated article that is recent and new.

2. Proximity
Article: Manor high will open 2nd campus
http://digital.olivesoftware.com/Olive/ODE/AustinAmericanStatesmanNIE/
I think this article relates to proximity because proximity is the nearness of a given event to your place of publication. The article is located in central Texas and the Austin american statesman is located in Austin.

3. Prominence
Article: Ambassador tires to bridge gap with U.S, nut on Israel's terms
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/26/us/israel-ron-dermer-ambassador-iran-nuclear-deal.html?ref=world
I think this article relates to prominence because this article is on a certain person and he is the main subject. If he wasn't very important than he would not have a whole story on what he is doing. He is talking/ relating to what is going on in the world today which is pretty important.

4. Impact
Article: Thousands protest women's mob killing
http://digital.olivesoftware.com/Olive/ODE/AustinAmericanStatesmanNIE/
I think this article relates to Impact because impact is the effect/ consequence of an event on an audience and this article shows how people are reacting to an event on the women's mob killing.

5. Conflict
Article: Yemen air base formerly used by U.S forces is seized by Houthi Rebels
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/26/world/middleeast/al-anad-air-base-houthis-yemen.html?ref=world
I think this article relates to conflict because Houthi rebels are having a conflict with us and our air base which we have used. This is a true example and is a really big conflict in the middle east for us. This conflict is between two people and it is physical.

6. Human interest
Article: Afghan protesters demand justice for women killed by mob
Afghan Protesters Demand Justice for Woman Killed by Mob
I think this article relates to human interest because interest is the drama that surrounds people involved in an emotional struggle. A women was killed and people are being emotionally effected by this. People are trying to make protests but some people are not being successful.

7. Novelty
Article: Black market quest for "big booty" ends in death
http://digital.olivesoftware.com/Olive/ODE/AustinAmericanStatesmanNIE/
I think this article relates to novelty because it is an unusual attraction to people, being that the title included the name big booty. The article is different and it is interesting and shows that this is an article that people are interested in for being unusual, people don't normally pay attention to random stuff like this.
