If you look in most newspapers or watch broadcast news on any day of the week, you can usually find out what the POTUS is up to.

Journal Assignment
Use News You Can Peruse (PDF) and look for a story that has run in the past month about our current president. Identify at least two of the following five news values: timeliness, proximity, novelty, conflict, or impact that this story contains.

Your journal entry should be a paragraph that includes the following:
A link to the news story you found
A list of any news values that the story meets
A sentence for each listed value explaining how it meets that criteria
