  9. WRITE 2 NEWS BRIEFS: • Headlines • When? Date/time/day • Where? City at the beginning of the article • (more details about other locations in the article) • Who? People that testify or give their account through a quote. Quote is followed by the name and a description of the person. • What? What’s happened? • How did it happen or why did it happen? • TONE: FORMAL and FACTUAL and OBJECTIVE • THE HEAVENS—Lord God, He Who Commanded Light to Shine out of Darkness told reporters this Wednesday that despite creating all other forms of life in the universe, He in fact had nothing to do with creating gerbils. “I just wanted everyone to know that I have absolutely no idea where gerbils came from; they just showed up a few million years ago and started reproducing,” admitted God, the Divine Creator of Life, Heaven, Earth, and the rest of the order of Rodentia, but not gerbils. “I have no problems with gerbils personally, I just wanted to make it clear that they weren’t sculpted by my divine hand. Clearly some other force brought them into existence, but I honestly couldn’t tell you what, why, or how.” God added that whoever or whatever created the gerbil must have been a fan of his work, since it is a “complete rip-off” of the hamster.
