Headlines

A. Do's

  • Make your headline answer as many W's as possible.
  • The headline should summarize the news story.
  • Positive heads are preferable to negative ones

FLUSH LEFT

- Both lines are flushed to the left margin. This is also

true with a one-line headline. This has no exact count

for the units in each line.

EXAMPLE:

Inverted Pyramid

Each of the three or four lines in this head is successively shorter than the line above it.

EXAMPLE:

Jump story headline

Dropline or Step Form

A jump story (a story continued on another page) has a headline of its own. This may be the same as the original headline or it may just be a word, a phrase or a group of words followed by a series of dots.

EXAMPLE:

The first line is flushed left while the second is indented. It may consist of two or three, and sometimes four lines of types of the same length, somewhat less than a column in width, so that the first line is flushed to the left, the second centered, and the third flushed to the right.

Crossline or Barline

Boxed headline

A one-line headline that runs across the column. The simplest form, it is a single line across the allotted space. If it runs across the page, it is called a streamer.

EXAMPLE:

HANGING INDENTION

For emphasis or art's sake, some headlines are boxed:

a. Full box

b. Half box

c. Quarter box

The first line is flushed left. This is followed by two indented parallel lines.
