In a newspaper, all crisp and new
Are words and pictures just for you
Articles, columns, headlines too
Each with a different point of view

The editor is in charge you see
She decides what the news will be
She checks the facts and evidence
So readers know it's not just pretense

The photographer takes the shot
Capturing the moment on the spot
With each copy, the image stays
Preserved for many future days

Contributors write about their passion
Sharing knowledge and their fashion
Their words bring light to an issue
And help others understand it too

Assumptions aren't the way to go
Facts and evidence help us grow
So read the masthead and you'll know
The team who makes the paper glow

With each new edition you'll find
A world of knowledge for the mind
So grab a copy, take a look
And learn about the world, like an open book!

Reflections

1. Who is in charge of deciding what news is printed in a newspaper?
2. What do photographers do for a newspaper?
3. Why is it important to check the facts and evidence before printing news in a newspaper?
