What qualifies as national news

A story is national when the same good thing is happening in unrelated places, which makes it a pattern rather than an announcement. It is not a bigger version of a local story, and one town wanting a wider audience does not make it one.

Every story is filed at the level it actually reaches, and no higher. That is what keeps a neighborhood story feeling like it belongs to the neighborhood instead of to a wire.

About Hello Newswire

A good news newswire for the places most newsrooms skip

Hello Newswire is the good news newswire of HelloNation. Correspondents cover the towns they actually live in, and from here a story travels to HelloNation Magazine and the network of neighborhood and city sites that serve the same streets.

1Somebody hands us good news

A chamber, a Main Street association, a BBB, a coach, a neighbor. Nominating a story takes about a minute.

2A correspondent who lives there writes it

Team Hello correspondents cover their own towns, so the details are right, the names are spelled right and the byline is local.

3It publishes, then it travels

Every story lands here first, then goes out to HelloNation Magazine, the neighborhood sites and any local publisher who wants it.
