Article Abstract:

The 2000 presidential election's results were not determined for several weeks, making newspaper reporting appear anachronistic. Papers seeking to meet readers' needs during this lengthy crisis should have abandoned their tradition of a lead story in favor of a picture that portrayed tension and summary items of key issues.

Article Abstract:

Readers consume what they see

Article Abstract:

Newspaper text is the last part readers notice. The industry should change by increasing its visual awareness and emphasis, and newspapers should change by making their design more attractive and powerful.
