 Conflicts: This category includes violence, strikes, revolutions, secessionist groups, tribal and clan fights, elections and the power battles of politics.  Disaster and tragedy: This may include politically motivated killings, arsons, maiming, rape, harassments, hunger, politicization of food distribution.  Crime: Any crime can be news, whether it is a road traffic offence, break and enter, corruption, forgery, rape or murder - but more serious crimes or unusual crimes generally make bigger news stories. More importantly when the crimes are being committed by people who occupy public office or political office.  Famous people: Prominent men and women make news. What people in the public eye do the lives they lead and what they look like, are all of interest. It is especially newsworthy when they fall from power, lose their money or are involved in scandal.  Human interest: There are often unusual and interesting aspects of other people's lives which are not particularly significant to society as a whole. Stories about these are called human interest stories. Examples might be children being left destitute after their parents were killed during political violence; the recovery process of those who were victimized during the national events like elections; or displacements of people from communities as political temperatures rise 10
