We are studying the traditional news values. Nine criteria seem to be the expected elements that influence news reporters and editors to cover and include stories in a newspaper or broadcast.
Using the Charleston Post and Courier newspaper from Wednesday, Feb. 6, 2019 I have identified a story or two that fulfills each criteria from the news value checklist. And each report is also identified by its types of story.

This types of news story that this speech could be categorized in would be government and politics.
