Journalists rely on the 5 criteria when choosing a news story. The first criteria is strong impact. Local stories impact the public more than unfamiliar international events. In order to attract attention, journalists inflate news and present them as situations that could happen to anyone. They turn rare international crisis into everyday scenarios, personalizing stories and losing the main significance of it. Violence, conflict, disaster, or scandal is the second criteria. Topics such as murders, wars, shootings, or hurricanes captivate the attention of the audience.
