Preguntas para practicar

Why is it important to include who, what, when, where and why in a news article?

Because these five questions give the reader the essential facts of the event in a clear and complete way. They answer who was involved, what happened, when and where it happened, and why it happened. Without them, the article would be confusing or incomplete.
