ideas for next year
1. making polls and surveys would be interesting and pull more people to read the paper since they know they'd be in the paper and so would their opinions
2. definitely need to dig deeper with people we interview, start conversations with them and ask them more personal questions and ask till you get those good answers that have a lot of meaning in them

Front Pages of the World
1. my favorite newspaper front page was Metro from new york, new york because the headlines and main picture draw your attention, even the ad for spotify on the cover draws your attention.
2. my favorite headline was the main one that said "just dying to live here" because the picture with the headline is like a joke but also makes you want to read the story.
3. there aren't really stories on the cover but previews of the stories inside to make you want to open up the paper and read.
4. they all have a lot of headlines on them talking about the stories they've covered.
5. some have interesting pictures, some have pictures that dont show exactly what their story is about, some have interesting headlines but no story on the cover, other have headlines and a story under it.
