In this new feature, I'm occasionally spotlighting Gannett newspaper front pages in print, drawn randomly from the Newseum's collection. This is today's Montgomery Advertiser, which is very heavy on graphics; click on the image for a bigger view.Basically, it's a one-story front built around "The Wars They Fought" package. I like it! It took me a long time to come around to this, but I like front pages with big visuals pointing to good stuff inside.
The Advertiser at a glance:
- Publisher: Scott M. Brown
- Executive Editor: Wanda Lloyd
- Founded: 1829
- Joined Gannett: 1995
- Employees: 375
- Circulation: 49,789 morning; 59,413 Sunday

Please keep your posts focused on Gannett and media-related subjects. Note that I occasionally review comments in advance, to reject inappropriate ones. And I ignore hostile posters, and recommend you do, too."
