in the news

News by definition is a report or presentation of a recent event or intelligence that is previously unknown. For example, news in a newspaper is typically a recent event. However sometimes there are updates in the news as well.

"In the news" can be both pieces from already published news articles that writers want to highlight or actually newly written articles or blogs that are newsworthy, those that actually are pieces of new information that you would like to share with others.

Information in the news is often interesting to those people reading it. Something that may not be considered newsworthy may be considered about an idea or concept that nobody cares about. Often times if you are blogging or writing about something "in the news" then it already has been placed in the public news arena. But you may be putting a new twist on it. An "in the news" article may also highlight that the news is important to you and/or your readers.
