Newspaper Stories

The local newspapers contain lots of different stories.

Halstead Gazette
The Halstead Gazette contains stories about incidents with local people, stories about the local area and what's been happening. For example, in the Halstead Gazette some stories included this week are a story about the local town and how its walks have been improved by the riverside. Another story included is about how a charity is trying to raise money because of the death of a local man in the area.

Braintree and Witham Times
Again, the Braintree and Witham Times contains stories about the local area and the people within it. For example, in the most recent Braintree and Witham Times I looked at, the stories included were about a tidy up in the local area by residents of the area and about the crime total in the area and how many criminals there are in that area.

However, national newspapers contain completely different stories altogether.

The Mail
The Mail contains stories focussed on celebrities and celebrity gossip. It also contains stories from around the world and not just in one area but there are some stories included that are from local places. For example,  a lot of stories are about celebrities that are very popular such as Simon Cowell and Cheryl Cole. However, the story that stands out the most and is the first story is about some squirrels being rescued from a hurricane and is not a big story with celebrity gossip.
