Maybe give some free advice about: School?
ok well in that case think about what someone outside the island could possibly know without being there, what signs would be visible to a land across sea. Don't fall into the trap of assuming more knowledge than they could have!
So you could put in Simon's body having washed up on another shore, the fact that the outside world knows that a passenger aircraft crashed on the island (you could add in that the outside world has not yet found a safe way to reach the survivors or something to justify why they've been left there) and that the fire seen burning suggests suvivors but who and how many is unclear.
Perhaps you could make this article sound like it's an update on an on-going situation like they've been reporting on the fact there are people on the island for some time and that the newest development is the finding of Simon's body (though obviously the reporter would not know his name first-hand- perhaps she got it from an official source). Treat it as a big sensational thing that there has clearly been a brutal murder on this island that has shocked the public to its core and increased concern for the welfare of those trapped on it. Make the island sound like a place shrouded in sinister mystery and perhaps mention something along the lines of having no information about who is leading and rallying the shipwrecked but it clearly being an individual or individuals of immense strength and brutality. They'll like it if you can give distorted points of view of actually events and situations in the book in the form of how it would appear to an outsider.
Phew, hope that helped!
