Sections Within a Newspaper Unit 3: Is it Newsworthy? Sections Within a Newspaper

Sections and Types of Articles within a Newspaper Features Section A feature article is soft news and often takes more time to write because it’s not as important to inform the public about. Feature articles are windows into the human experience, giving more detail and description than a hard news story. Features often focus on events or individuals. Opinion/Editorial (Op/Ed) Section This section gives a newspaper staff or its readers a chance to write their opinion about a topic--no other type of article may include the writer’s opinion. News Section These are the most important stories and appear on the front page. These stories are the “hardest” news to report to the public. Sports Section The sports section contains all types of articles about sports-- news, features, and opinion/editorial articles. Anything to do with sports is in this section and includes hard and soft sports news.
