This is a Local News Story because it is held in Ilford, in East London. This story contains the news value 'Familiarity', because it occurred in an area geographically close to us (Ilford). It has 'Amplitude', as there was an open memorial where a lot of people came to honour the dead. This has 'Frequency', because it happens every year, on the same date (10/11/13). This has 'Impact', because the people who we honour, died for our country, and died for us to live in relative peace, and it is very likely that a relative died in a war, or at least participated in one. This has 'Predictability', as we knew it was going to happen, as it happens every year. This has 'Personalisation', as it highlights how our country, and its people have come through difficult times, and how we don't forget those who fought and died for our country. This has 'Balance', because it represents the good of people to take their time to remember.
