Here’s how newspapers across the country are covering the Washington, DC Capitol protests. Newspaper front pages, while anachronisms, uniquely capture a moment in time.
Gannett’s Detroit Free Press
Is the “On Guard for 189 Years” new? I like it. Also good to see they are sticking with the old typeface for the logo. There was a brief switch over to new branding that staff didn’t like.
The Washington Post calls out the “Trump mob”.
The Post features a powerful guns drawn image.
Gannett’s flagship, USA TODAY
Like the Post, the guns drawn imagery is arresting.
San Francisco Chronicle says “Insurrection”
Key photo shows people scaling the walls of the U.S. Capitol.
Miami’s Herald says “Chaos in D.C.”
Chaos was definitely an accurate term.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Philadelphia’s finest shows an image of the large crowd and a smaller shot of the guns drawn in the chamber.
