You are a news journalist that has been assigned to write a ½ page to full page report on one of the central events that occurs in Shakespeare’s Macbeth.
Your lead news story should be based on one or more of the main scenes from the play.
This may include:
– Macdonwald’s rebellion against the throne
– Any of the murders
– Macbeth’s encounter with the witches
Your central article should provide a detailed account of the event in question that describes where this event took place, who was involved, when it happened, and how it happened.
Your main article should include a catchy headline to hook your readers; you must provide a title for the news organization or agency that you’re writing for, and you should include one or more pictures to accompany your article(s).
You must also include a relevant quotation from the play to incorporate into your story.
In addition to your primary focus story, you must also include at least two shorter entries (at least 2-3 sentences in length) that are either articles, ads or other features you would find in a newspaper.
Your newspaper/ news page should be organized, creative and demonstrate few major grammatical or punctuation issues.
