The Bakersfield Californian vs. The Modesto Bee

These articles take two different approaches to presenting the public with the news. The Bakersfield Californian newspaper takes a colorful approach by making the whole front page a picture with the article name in large letters to draw attention to it. The article is able to catch the reader's eye because of its color.
On the contrary, The Modesto Bee has almost no color because text takes up most of the front page. However, it uses titles like "California's Most Threatening Volcanoes are not far from Fresco" to grab the reader's attention. Since there is almost no color on this front page, the newspaper relies on article titles to prompt the reader's interest.
