Reactions • When I started looking up different front pages, it was difficult at first to figure out the in Scope of some. But you had to look over the front pages and decide. I had a mixture of all of the in Scopes. You would think that all font pages stick to one in Scope. Most front pages of newspapers differ in Scopes such as having a local in Scope with some national or vice versa. There is a type of flow or theme to the front pages of newspapers. The local newspapers usually focus on a little bit of every in scope aspect, while USA Today and The Herald has a national theme.
