When comparing newspaper layouts from Freedom Forum’s layout to Archived Front Pages layout, there are various yet distinct visual strategies. The first source shows current newspaper front pages from a global perspective, emphasizing the current headlines and contemporary design elements. Examples of this include bold headlines and flashy images to catch the attention of the audience. The second source captures historical moments, with the layouts incorporating the design trends and editorial choices of the present, highlighting important events with dramatic visual and specific narratives. Therefore, the differences in these front page news covers illustrate how visual rhetorics evolve to capture the attention of the audience and efficiently convey news. This is important since according to a freedom forum institute, “A front page, and the photographs and images chosen for the front page, can reveal as much about a newspaper and its community as it does about the day’s news.”
