News values which are relevant to my newspaper

Threshold - My main stories are on my front page as they are big events.
Composition - I have tried to have a good balance of negative and positive stories in my paper to make it a good read.
Actuality - I am using pictures in my paper to support my stories, for example, next to my story about a car crash, i have a photo of flowers placed by the road.
Recency - i have made sure that all my stories are current and have happened within the past week
These are the main ones but i do also use others. Some of the news values however are more relevant to national papers.
