Front Pages if the World
- Favorite Newspaper front page: Silver City Sun-News. It's my favorite because the headline and picture worked together so nicely and it really caught my attention.
- The paper is from Silver City New Mexico
- My favorite headline is "Woman injured in drive-by", not because of the story is summarizes, but for the attention grabbing aspect of it.
- The story of the woman injured in the drive by, works because it contrasts with the happy violinist.
- All the newspapers have a bold headline and a big picture on the front page.
- The layout of all the newspapers differ.
