The news is often considered the eyes and ears of ordinary people. But what happens when the news misses the real story?
[In this video](https://britishlibraryemails.bl.uk/5JXV-L3GQ-6TJVT-EM39R-1/c.aspx), journalists Samira Ahmed and Kurt Barling discuss what makes an event newsworthy, reflecting on TV coverage featured in our exhibition of the aftermath of the devastating Grenfell Tower fire, and consider the vital role journalists can play.
There are only a few weeks left to explore just how, and why, different stories make and break the news.
Content warning: this video includes reference to the Grenfell Tower fire that some viewers may find upsetting.
