Front Pages Of The World

  1. What is your favorite newspaper front page? Why? My favorite newspaper front page is Het Financieele Dagblad. This newspaper is published in Amsterdam, Netherlands. What I liked about this newspaper was the colors,simplicity, and graphics. 
  2. What is your favorite headline from that newspaper? Why are you interested in it? All the stories and headlines are in what I think is Dutch, so I don't know what the articles and headlines are about.The main headline Lage Rente Kopzorg voor AFM, I noticed for it's simplicity. The graphic below of a dropping percent makes me assume that the main story featured is about the economy or stock market. 
  3. How many stories are on the front page of your favorite? There are two main stories on the front page of the newspaper. I don't know what they are about.
  4. What do you notice that all newspaper front pages have in common? Look at design, size of photos, size of story text, etc. All the newspapers I looked at had headlines at the top of the page and had similar sized text in their articles. On the sides of the newspapers they all had page numbers and descriptions for other articles inside of the newspapers.
  5. 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. The differences in the newspapers I viewed was colors used and the amount and size of pictures on the fronts. Also the newspapers produced in different countries had articles written in different languages.
