A typical hard news story will have who, what, where, why, when. Kept simple, giving the reader the information that they need.
A soft news story is not time sensitive. Profiles of people or organization.
Feature stories explore an issue, much longer that hard/soft news. They are very detailed, tells a story, narrative.
STRUCTURE OF ARTICLE:
The Lead: Incorporate as many as the 5 W's as possible. Summarize the story to draw the reader in.
The Body: Facts, narrative, interviews. Makes up the bulk of the story. Sticks to a particular theme throughout the whole story. The eyes and ears of the reader.
