News, when precisely defined, is current information made available to the public about what is going on (Charnley, 1966). Chamley (1966) states that news is the timely, concise, accurate reporting of an event; it is not the event itself. As the event is not news until it is communicated or told, newsmen define news as a “report” rather than an “event” (Chamley, 1966). Likewise, Bond (1961) says that news is not an event but the report of that event; not the actual happening but the story or account of that happening which reaches us.
