Newspaper stories reporting a crime most often describe the scene, motive and the perpetrator, generally enough information to create a fictional plot and characters. However, opinion pieces and essays generally focus on a subject. Is there enough depth in that single subject to form a plot? Is there enough information to create a protagonist and antagonist?
