Intro to Newspaper Design

1. The Santa Fe New Mexican because it has several completely different articles on the front. Not like a bunch of disasters or bad things. It looks interesting.
2. My favorite headline is Culinary masters show off their skills at James Beard Celebrity Chef Tour dinner because it's involving food and the pictures of the the chefs preparing the food and the picture of the food by itself looks tasty.
3. There are 6 stories.
4. A main picture and headlines then smaller ones around it. Also they all have a title. One of the ones in Asia only has 3 stories it kind of looks like a magazine.
5.  How many articles they have and how many pictures they have. Fonts are different and of course names. Some titles are bigger than others and some have mainly photos on them and others have more writing.
