Hello,

My name is Melissa Hampson and I am currently studying A Level Media at Roby Sixth Form. For my coursework I have to produce a local newspaper. For my research I have been analysing current local newspapers, including yours and it would be a great help if someone from your newspaper could give me some feedback please. I have put together several questions if you could please answer some or all of them:

Who is your target audience and what do you target audience like to see the most in your newspaper?

How is the content of your newspaper divided between topics (sport, real life, gossip, factual news, advertisements)?

How do you decide what stories are news worthy for the front page and what stories need images alongside them?

Thanks

Melissa Hampson
