Each news article off of the website, Newseumed.org always starts the headline with the most interesting and informative headline, one that will grab your attention and draw the reader in. For example, one headline is, "Student's Walk Out Over Gun Violence, 2018"(Newsumed Archived Pages). As the headline states, the majority of the article explains how students decided to walk out, "the demonstrations occurred on the one-month anniversary of the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla., which claimed 17 lives" (Neusumed Archived Pages). The picture they choose for the headlines also is quite dramatic, wherein this specific example shows students pushing out of a gate running from the school. These kinds of images chosen are always selected in order to draw readers in, along with the headline.
For the most part, most news articles follow this kind of format, with a dramatic image as well as a catchy headline in order to gather the reader's attention. At times it can be quite informative, but in this day and age it is getting too close to being classified as fake news.
