Newsroom Run: take a story from tip to publication

Every story follows a path. Take a breaking story or an investigation through every stage, beat a challenge at each one and file the items in your story file.

Demo content, simplified for teaching. It is a study aid, not legal advice. Confirm every legal reference against the official text. Progress is saved in your browser only.

What this shows

A journey, not a list

Stages unlock one by one on a path, so students learn the order as they travel it.

Decisions at every stage

Is one source enough? When must the subject get a chance to reply?

A story file to collect

Every stage files a real item: the tip log, the checklist, the edited copy, the legal read.

A final order challenge

Put the whole story in order and match who does what, to publish it.
