What is "human interest"?
Human interest refers to stories that focus on people, their emotions, experiences, and personal struggles, rather than just facts or events. These stories aim to connect with readers on an emotional level by highlighting aspects of life that are relatable or inspiring. They can cover topics such as personal achievements, challenges, or heartwarming moments. Human interest stories are often featured in news articles, magazines, or television segments because they capture the human side of news and create a deeper connection with the audience.
