Comparing CNN and NBC news layouts you can immediately see the difference of a calm website layout then a hectic layout that over flows with adds and headlines. Both well established news source have extremely different layouts CNN has a very bold approach by almost throwing everything in the readers face such adds, articles, bold text, column after column not providing the eyes time to rest. On the other hand NBC has a very relaxing calm layout only displaying a total of two adds the screen isn't entirely filled like CNN, instead of article name after article names they display the articles picture with the names underneath giving some time for the eyes to relax. Both News outlets do share the same news but it is really about the delivery of the news to hook a reader CNN displayed in bold text" Trump says Pence will lead coranvirus team" while NBC's headlines in bold but a more interesting title "Trump says coronavirus US risk is 'very low', puts Pence of gov't response" both sites used the same exact picture but NBC's display of cooler tones and title draws the readers attention more rather than a bold white and bright headline being shoved on to the reader. CNN's approach to catch a readers attention is to show a article right away and hope to get the reader hooked, while NBC has an approach a allowing the reader to take time to look at the soft texts and really read something they internally searched for rather than something that might have been forced on to them.
