I am here SETTING OUT the basic components of what is news.

When will the NEWS ORGANISATIONS stop waiting for the worst to happen before they report?

I am thinking of the Honduras prison tragedy. As the Guardian is reporting, most of the people who died were not even convicts. Not convicted any way. They were on remand. Put most generally in the language of the “English legal system”. [And I have a lot to say about THAT, later] .

Where is the justice in their deaths?

And why aren't the "DAMNING REPORTS" news agenda setters, editors, commissioning editors everywhere busy investigating similar tragedies waiting to happen BEFORE THEY HAPPEN across the world where millions of innocent people are held captive without trial...?

NEWS MUST be pro active always.

Investigate more. Parade less. In fact parade none. Investigate.
