Writing Exercise 4: "Front Page News"

Description: Write a cover story for a major newspaper. It can be serious or humorous, whatever moves you!

Tips: Humorous examples are The Onion and Andy Borowitz. I've written both humorous and serious kinds, the latter a fictional news story about a politician which might someday serve as the basis for a new story. So these exercises not only stretch your writing muscles, but are good fertilizer for new material.
