2. Idea
We have decided to create a community programme with an niche audience for 16-19
because from the research I found there wasn't a news programme with that age range.
My idea for a New News
programme.
We are going to produce an TV based news series with a niche
audience in the sense of a community channel, in which the public
can interact with commenting on the news and use social
networks like Twitter and Facebook to post their feedback and
opinions.
What kind of news
programme am I
going to produce ?

3. Why is there a need for this
programme?
We strongly feel that a new programme is needed
because their isn't a niche audience new programme
that address issues that should be covered.
What are its unique selling propositions?
We see our unique selling point it that is aimed at 16
to 19 year olds and we feel that it is unique because
there is no news programme that deals with that
demographic.

13. News Program SAMPLE script
Intro with presenter
Presenter: A teenager from Hampton has sung her way to the area finals of
a national competition while studying for her A/S-levels.
I would go to the presenter and show him the script in which they will link to
a correspondent in girl’s house. However, there will be a contingency plan in
case the video link fails.
