Front page. If nothing else, it's the front page or the headliner that catches a reader's attention. Visualization is so important when trying to capture an audience. In seeing
several different front page layouts we can see what style we immediately gravitate to. It's interesting because when I see something very tragic as much as it pains me to see suffering or pain, it intrigues me, I always want to know the full story. When I see a young child or someone struggling, I want to know more because I want to know the end and that there was a resolution. At times when the story ends tragically, I then have to go find something else which is uplifting, but dramatic none the less, just to get me out of the sadness that may have come from getting so involved in the previous. To this day there is a story I have followed and wondered about for years regarding a young adopted child who was mysteriously missing and later found deceased. Her father was found guilty, yet I still think of her, her younger sister who will now go on without her and her mom who is free to be a mom to her biological daughter. An incredibly emotional story, it will never be forgotten. The pictures shared in those interviews and articles, remain in my head til this day, innocent at the core, just 3 years old I believe.
