Swine Flu Not Front-Page Worthy for USA TODAY

April 27th, 2009 · No Comments

USA TODAY Top of Page 4-27-09Front-page editors at USA TODAY International Edition must be wishing they had picked a different top-of-page teaser to appear on the front-page of their print edition published today.  Nowhere was there a mention of the Swine Flu outbreak that has raised concerns in the United States, Mexico and other countries in recent days.

Instead, I found articles about the NFL Draft, the recession and President Barack Obama’s first 100 days.  For people thinking of traveling to Mexico or some other exotic destination as journalists, I found a top-of-page teaser photo of a teacher providing a class of aspiring journalists digital film training as part of a Travel Channel initiative.
