Most news on TV usually start with hard hitting headline stories that could potentially affect the nation. They would normally be new news, then after there could be stories that could've been ongoing that the reporters are following and keeping us up to date with. Then gradually nearer the end of the news, the stories become lighter and less heavy so the audience could take a breather from the heavy topics.
Package
This is a self contained news report which has already been shot and edited. This would be filmed and saved as a VT (Video Tape) for when presenters (usually in the studio) introduce the news, other presenters who are out on location presenting other news would be called and anchor.
News packages could contain a presenter. This presenter could introduce the report by a walkie talkie to the audience. Then other shots could include cut aways, graphics, CCTV to help explain and show a story visually. We may not see the presenter and just see shots, but the reporter would introduce their news and story through an OOV (out of vision), and present their interviews as a 1 way where the reporter would be standing next to the camera and the interview would be a mid-shot or close up of the interviewee.
Live reports
Today I watched on ITV a news programme which was a 2min live without any cuts. The camera was hand held, the presenter was sitting in the middle between 6 people in whom he was going to interview about football. The story was about England vs Scotland, so one side of the team were on one side and the other side of the team were on the other. The camera got closer as the reporter was asking questions to each side of the team. As each side spoke, the camera panned left to right, then back following whoever was talking.
