Answer:
The answer is daily news.
Explanation:
A daily news is a type of article which informs about recent events. It is also more inclined to inform about local events, and it provides facts and detailed information following answers to general questions like who, what, when, where, why and how.
The article clearly answers most of the general questions: what (local homes destroyed), when (two weeks ago), where (Shady Pines), who (Lydia Greg and others), and how (a tornado blowing through the town). The information is also presented in an inverted pyramid style, which consists in starting the article with specific, relevant information and ending it with less, general and irrelevant information: The article stated all the information needed to understand the situation in the first lines and then it added some extra information to complement the last lines.
It is also necessary to state the meaning of the other terms to understand the difference between each one of them:
- A headline is a part of the article that is indicated at the top of it, as a title to grab the attention of the reader. It has to be short, concise and interesting.
- A 'Behind the story' is a type of feature story which provides events with the active involvement of the journalist in charge. Unlike regular news articles, they use to be more creative, elaborated, and tend to use high-quality writing. Its presentation is more similar to the writings and short stories ones.
- An editorial is a type of article written by the senior editor or publisher of a newspaper in which they discuss selected topics or events considered important matters for the reader. It usually has a dedicated page and it is often unsigned, without the leader writer's name on it.
Being the terms already stated, and after comparing the article with each one, news story is the option that best describes the article.
