News Values



  1. 2 bodies found in southeast Travis County, authorities say relates to timeliness because when I checked for the date, I found that the story was posted only 32 minutes ago. This means that this story is updated and has all of the most recent facts.
  2. FORECAST: High of 102 would make 11th straight day above 100 in Austin relates to proximity because the particular event in the story is relevant to Austin/our area rather than other places.
  3. See Hurricane Lane for yourself: 7 Hawaii webcams to watch relates to prominence because this is a large event that is happening right now that many people would pay attention to in a story.
  4. New owner for controversial Austin Oaks development relates to impact because the changes due to the new owner will be impacting the people surrounding the Austin Oaks development. 
  5. Mom investigated for allowing 8-year-old daughter to walk dog around block alone relates to conflict because there are two main opposing forces in the story. There is an argument about an issue, concerning a parent and authorities.
  6. Father of North Austin hit-and-run victim asks driver to come forward relates to human interest because the issue in this story is quite personal rather than professional. The father of the victim is going through an emotional struggle and this is causing some drama.
  7. Beyonce, Jay-Z receive key to Columbia, S.C., have day named in their honor relates to novelty because of how odd the story is and who it is about. This isn't a normal news story that you would find online, it not very common and that is what draws readers to it. Plus, it involves celebrities which may also attract attention.

1. Is there something you see in the photo above that you think could be a problem when you take your photos? Look carefully.

By the roses would be an interesting place to do it as there are many different places to pose/do. 3. Can you think of something creative to actually DO in the photo when you take yours? I could be smelling the rose, jumping over myself from the bench in the garden, or getting closer or farther from the camera. 4.

Self Portraits: I really liked these two images because they capture the subject of the photo in such unique ways. Casual Portraits: These photos do a good job of clearly showing someones everyday appearance *casually*. For my self portraits, I would make sure to be in an environment that I commonly use to show a little bit of my personal life in the photograph. I would also create good lighting in the room/space to shoot a clear and bright photo.
