when it comes to writing newspaper articles, i believe the most important thing is to state the facts with an unbaised opinion....and not get in trouble with it. unfortunately not everyone always abides by this rule. instead, people in charge of newspapers can sometimes censor specific articles on the bases that they simply just don't like them, for reasons unreasonable. like, maybe the article was stating something unpleasant (legally) but totally true about a person, business, etc. and it gets cut because it puts that or those certain person(s) in a bad light. slander and libel is wrong, but! stating something as"unpleasant" but imperativly useful and beneficiary and cutting it just because of this reason is wrong too!! the press is alllll about imforming the people of facts that they need to know, and shouldn't be anything other than that! it's annoying when people do that, like the people in charge of newspapers and whatnot. not only annoying but indignantly stupid. it happens everyday though; stories and scoops of the century can get cut just because the people in charge of the report think it would be cuter to broadcast a story about a little girl's father catching a baseball and amusingly watch her throw it back and be all like "awwwww, so cute!" than learn of the different and important political changes going on alll around the world. there are like, TONS of stories that don't get put on tv just because of "popularity issues." like i'm pretty sure we could of watch something more serious but important than spend hours and hours watching an inventor's balloon fly 5,000 feet above ground supposedly carrying a boy(which it didn't). so anyways that's my opinion, which i can clearly state in any manner i please because this isn't a newspaper article :D
