What is your favorite newspaper front page? Why? My favorite newspaper front page is the Star-Gazette because I like the illustration on the front that goes with one of the main articles, and I like the variety of news it includes. What is your favorite headline from that newspaper? Why are you interested in it?  Mt favorite headline from the newspaper is "Too Much Waste?" because it has a short intro/description on the front, is paired with a colorful illustration, and it discusses a topic I haven't heard about. How many stories are on the front page of your favorite?  Four stories are on the front page. What do you notice that all newspaper front pages have in common? Look at design, size of photos, size of story text, etc. Most front pages have a large title at the top, subtitles in similar fonts, one main headline in bold with a large picture, and small pictures to go along with the other front page articles. A lot of them have a side bar on one...

1. Early Magazine Covers- These magazine covers typically start with a title page and table of contents. They are modeled after books, so they give information about the publication dates and often have graphics on the cover that give no information about what is inside the magazine. Some of the magazines didn't even have a cover, so the articles would start one the very first page. 2. The Poster Cover- These covers often consisted of only pictures, illustrations, or photographs. Little to no text was included on the cover, so the photo on the cover often gave readers an idea of what was inside the magazine or would portray a certain mood to the viewer. The only words that may have been included were the magazine name and logo.  3. Pictures Married to Type- These covers included both text and pictures, and they focused the cover around cover lines, which are short blurbs/phrases that give a general idea of the articles within a magazine. The art and photographs would go along ...

The future Hall of Famer's retirement dominated the sports world; the chorus of send-offs from columnists, TV hosts and commercials served as an early-fall replacement for October playoff talk. But The Magazine chose a cover that reflects more quiet reverence than extended standing ovation. It depicts The Captain--the most iconic baseball player of his era--in his tradition of leading the Yankees onto the field before each home game. This time, though, Jeter is silhouetted out of the frame and into an all-white background. Jeter isn't only running onto the field--but into immortality." Critique- I like this portrait because it is very simple and  elegant. The baseball player, Derek Jeter, is clearly the main focus, and the white b...
