      Part 3:

      

       BBC NEWS target audience: The official target audience for the programme BBC NEWS is primarily teenager’s and adults as the programme uses very advanced English, which makes it harder for younger people to understand the message presenters try to get across to the audience. The gender breakdown could be as much as 65% male and 35% female. The age range would mainly concentrate on 14 till 70 years of age. Furthermore, BBC NEWS has recently had a huge increase in the number of people who have been watching it on either computer and Television. This has been quoted from BBC NEWS themselves “New figures released today show the BBC’s global audience has increased to a record-breaking 265m people a week. The figures, for 2013/14, represent an increase of 9 million people on the previous year”

     Arsema Dawit, 15, was stabbed 60 times by Thomas Nugusse at Waterloo, central London, in 2008.Her inquest at Southwark Crown Court heard this was six weeks after her family reported him to police.They had tried to report him for making threats and slapping her.In that incident at McDonald's, Nugusse hit Arsema on her face, leaving her with a black eye.Her mother and cousin told her inquest when they tried to report that incident, Gillian Johnson, the receptionist at London's Kennington police station, left them feeling that nothing would be done without more proof.Arsema's cousin Melyon Isak told the jury: "When I said that she [Arsema] had been assaulted she [Ms Johnson] kind of laughed and said in a joking kind of way 'why did you let him do that to you?' with a smile on her face."While they were at the police station Nugusse, who was 21 at the time, texted Ms Isak with the warning, "stay out of it don't get involved".He also left a voice message saying: "It doesn't matter what you guys do I'm going to find her anyway".Ms Isak told the court that, after hearing the message, the receptionist "jokingly said, 'you really don't like him do you?'. I told her I do not like him, no'."

      

      The news editors chose this story because it raises awareness of what's going on around the world. Also how the crime rates in England continuously rises.It sort of warns many teenagers and adults to be careful on the streets of England, as any thing could surprisingly happen to you.Finally, it leavs people wondering if its safe for their children to go out.

      Prime Minister David Cameron said he would be "heartbroken" in the event of a "Yes" vote, while Labour leader Ed Miliband said the case for the Union came from the "head, heart and soul".Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond said the leaders could not be trusted.Meanwhile, a new opinion poll has suggested 47.6% of voters back "No", 42.4% "Yes", with 10% undecided.The new poll, by Survation for the Daily Record, was conducted before the Westminster party leaders announced their campaign visits.Mr Cameron and Mr Miliband abandoned their usual Prime Minister's Questions session in the House of Commons to head north, after other recent opinion polls suggested the referendum race was now neck and neck.Although the three leaders campaigned separately, they each called on voters to keep Scotland in the United Kingdom.

     I think they chose the Scotland story because it affects the whole nation and to gain support to keep the UK as the UK from all the world leaders is news worthy. It leaves the Nation wondering if Scotland is going to become independent from England and Wales or not.

      MP says he has 'deep regret' for actions that led to common assault on his ex partner earlier this year.

    More people would watch the news for this story as it's a story we haven't heard, which just might increase number of people who watch it because they want to know what their prime minister has been up to lately.
