Articles that focus on current events are called top stories, and they are a great way to capture the attention of readers and op-ed editors. These pieces should be timely, well written and accurate. They follow AP style and limit jargon and technical terms. In general, the best approach is to use verified facts and direct quotes instead of opinions. Use the inverted pyramid structure so that the most important information is first, followed by additional details and context.
