Change! Change! Change!

When it comes to the presentation and addressing of news, this can be accomplished in many unique ways for just one topic! As we all know news can be butchered or over exaggerated and that is is exactly what happened when it came to the "March For Our Lives" movement. After analyzing multiple front pages produced during this period of time, I found multiple common factors that the newspapers possessed. There was a calmer approach to the subject with headlines consisting of  "Young Voices Grow Louder" and "Someday Soon It Could Be Us" and there was also a more aggressive side to the reporting that stated, "Up In Arms" and "Youth Spearhead Protest". Something that I found that stood out to me was, multiple news sources lack to mention the students in the title or subtitle, when this was a major if not the biggest detail. Another found factor between most of the front pages posted was the word "change" which was used repeatedly used in titles and the articles themselves.
