The difference between good and not so good
newspaper layout

All of theses papers exhibit well done stylistic
layout
Each has clear and accurate headlines and are
void of tomb stoning.

Tomb stoning articles is when a paper lays out
two articles right next to each other with
similar headline fonts and sizes, making it
unclear for the readers to distinguish the
separate articles.
Tomb stoning can be easily avoided with the use
of correct stylistic layout. In most cases,
layout can be arranged without using two articles
directly side by side. Articles can be placed
horizontally or vertically with photos as
borders. other layout tools are shading, fill
effects, and boxing.

This headline clearly states what the article
will be about.
This picture divides the page to separate
articles and attract readers to the page.
The preview box separates each feature for clear
reading and a clean look for the front page.
None of the articles are placed directly side by
side.

However, when something as drastic as the
destruction of the World Trade center, a large
picture such as this one is captivating to
readers.
Most newspap-ers try not to use too many pictures
or too large of pictures on the front page.

Almost every newspaper in the world reported on
the attack of the twin towers. Each uses
different stylistic layout to portray the event
accurately and interestingly.

This student paper is not in any sort of real
layout style and is an example of something not
to do.
Here are two articles directly sided by side, a
definite no no.
All headlines are the same font and size, which
doesnt signify any importance to any of the
articles and is very boring.
Another error is that none of the pictures have
cut lines, something that almost every newspaper
picture is required to have.
