Two Important Things

Two things that  I feel that we should add to making our paper stronger are
having lots of social media in getting people into reading our online paper and trying to digging deeper with interviews to make our stories better.

acl festival

How do you feel about the acl passes being raised up in price?
what are your predictions for the acl line up?
Are you still going to or possibly going to try to go to acl with the high ticket prices?
have you been to acl in the past and if so how was it?
why do you think the prices of the passes were raised?
Do you think the high prices will affect how many people will go?
what is your dream line up?
 

Front pages of the World

My favorite newspaper front page was the Daily News because it had a lot of color and the dominant photo of the page captured my attention into making me want to read the story with the photo. I also liked the headlines of the stories because they were clever and made me want to read the actual story.

My favorite headline from the paper is "Future of film faces an overhaul" because I myself am interested in film and the headline made me wonder "what do they mean by overhaul" and it kept me guessing about the story and pulling me into wanting to read it.

There are about 3 stories that are appealing to me and look good.

I noticed that all of the front pages that I looked at all had a dominant photo on the cover of the paper that captured my eyes.

I noticed that some front pages had more writing than the others or that some had more photos than the others. I also noticed that some of the major headlines took up a lot of space and some of them didn't take up a lot of space.
