Reading the Newspaper is Cool!

When I first begin to read the newspaper, I first look for the Sports section which is usually in the third section of the newspaper. I mainly just skim through it until I find news that affects my favorite teams such as the New England Patriots, Boston Red Sox and/or USC. I also take a glance at the headline news on the front page to see what's going on in the community. For example, there was an article about the Texas Longhorns taking third spot in the BCS and that is important because there is controversy over it. Many Austinites are Longhorn fans, therefore they will respond to this article that took up about 2/3 of the front page. I'm not the type of reader that takes time to read the beginning all the way to the end. I mainly just skip through anything that doesn't look appealing or doesn't look interesting to me. A few things that I am not immediatley attracted to would probably have to be the Life & Arts section, and the Business section.

The pagees with more collor and more space popped out to me more than the pages that were less roomy. i usually hurry through the pages and skip to pages that have action or pictures like comics or feature pages. i don't often read the paper but if i were to do so i think i would read it alone in my room or outside. you know somewhere quiet.

First I read is well the first page. Because most likely that's where the most interesting stories are. Then I'll probably read the Life & Arts section because I like creative things! Everything else is usually something I don't feel like reading. I read the comics too. Sometimes. If those aren't boring either.

I try and get through the newspaper fast to make it as painless as possible. Why? Because I hate to put down your profession, but the newspaper is boring.
Also it smells weird and its very bland. The pictures don't help it at all. I really wish you guys could make it a different color. Like pink or purple to make it more oh whats the word... cool.

I don't have a special reading spot. I don't read the paper at home. But if I did it'd probably be in my room. My friend Bryce Pub keeps me updated on current events. In other words I don't read the paper. Or watch the news.

Reading a Newspaper is Cool (Not) and Heres How I Do It

1.) First I search for and actually read is the comic section. I enjoy the cartoons and "larger" easier to read text. Next I look at the Television today section. That is usually all I read. I read quickly and do not spend a lengthy amount of time on either of the sections. I do not like to read the paper because I personally find it boring. The context is too hard for me and the print is too small for me (consider larger text or double spacing) to feel comfortable reading (plus it has an unidentifiable smell.) The papers bland grey appearance gives it a boring look. If it was more colorful, it would make it more child friendly and make me feel more welcomed and at ease reading it.
2.) I hurry through the paper for reasons listed above.
3.) I don't believe in wasting so much paper on something I won't and don't want to read. I keep up with current events through CNN. If I wanted to read the paper though I would look it up on line.
I do not like reading the paper and find it boring, thus the title of the blog. Thanks!

The first page that catches my attention is obviously the cover. Then I start to skim through the different articles on the cover and move onto the comics.

I don't really pay attention to the other parts unless there is an article that has some celebrity that I like. Other than that I just rush through the paper, it doesn't catch my attention much. I would rather listen to the news on TV instead of reading the newspaper, it's a quicker way.

I don't like reading the newspaper because the font in every article are really tiny and not everyone can read it, I can read it but it is difficult at times when it shouldn't have to be. It would be nice if the font was a normal size. The newspaper is also too plain, it needs more color, more creativity! But then again, the newspaper isn't meant to be like a magazine.
I don't read the newspaper at home, I watch the TV news (like I mentioned earlier). So the paper obviously isn't interesting to me, more on the boring side. (no offense)

The pages that got my attention is first the cover,comics, and sports because they interested me.
I hurry through the pages.
I only read the newspaper here at school and i read at my table.

The font is tiny and it makes it seem like it is boring to read. I usually don't read the newspaper at home because to be honest i don't really like it because it should have more things that catch the eye instead of just a whole bunch of little print that anyone could barely read. I get most of important info from the news channel. Although i think that the newspaper in more sufisticated but the news on t.v. is more appealing.
