If you are interested in becoming a news reporter, start thinking about what kind of stories you want to write. News stories are usually divided into two types: hard news and soft news.
Hard news stories are usually about important events that are being reported on as they happen. Stories about things like politics, war, and crime fall into this group. They take a factual approach: What happened? When? Who was involved? Hard news is also called “general news” sometimes.
Soft news stories entertain the reader. They give background information and often tell a story. These stories are considered “human interest” because they talk about people in a personal or emotional way. They include information about their problems or concerns in a way that makes people sympathize.
