Writing the Story
Write it flat. News copy has no jokes in it, which is why a ridiculous event described in news copy is funny. Open with who, what, where. Quote one witness. End with a line about what happens next. Three short paragraphs is plenty for a page.
The Details That Sell It
A byline with a full name. A dateline with the town. A caption under the photo that names the person and the day. A second, unrelated headline further down the page. None of those are the joke, and all of them make the joke land.
Keep It Between Friends
This is for stories about people who will laugh at them. Do not use a real outlet's name or logo, and do not write about a real event or a stranger. A fake article about your brother is a prank. A fake article about the news is not.
