Newspaper Layout- Eye of the Tiger

Front Pages of the world

What is your favorite newspaper front page? Why? 

 My favorite newspaper front page is the Albuquerque journal because the first photo you see really grabs your attention and makes you want to read more about what is going on in the area. 

 

What is your favorite headline from that newspaper? Why are you interested in it?
"Tattoo parlor trip leaves mom with crime record" is a very interesting title because the words being combined in the headline isn't something you hear all the time. 

How many stories are on the front page of your favorite? 
Four stories are on the front page of my favorite newspaper 

What do you notice that all newspaper front pages have in common? Look at design, size of photos, size of story text, etc.
All of the photos in the newspapers have a big oversized photo in the center with a big headline followed by a story formed into columns and maybe a few extra stories on the bottom and left side. 

What are things that vary (or are different) on the front pages of different newspapers? Look at design, size of photos, size of headlines, etc. 
Some headlines are bigger than others and some pictures are smaller than others, also the front page in some newspapers contain legends or keys that reference different stories throughout the newspaper

Human Interest – the drama the surrounds people involved in an emotional struggle.
Bullying as another negative aspect of a teenagers life and many people are either very compassionate about it or try to shield there kids from it and it is very controversial and its sad to say that it does happen and people do hear about it which is why i think it is a perfect example for human interest.
