Indy Star front

Tell me I'm missing something.

The Indy Star's front page makes NO mention of Peyton Manning? I realize most people had the story the day before, but still -- NO mention on the front?

Guessing they had a separate section.

You're missing something. Something pretty obvious.

Nah, it's way funner to go with his way. That's right! They totally missed it! Probably just a column and maybe a newser on the sports front.

 

[SCEditor]

I'm told they had a special section that wrapped around 1A. I don't know why you wouldn't post that front on Newseum.com.

I probably should have figured that, but it's been a heck of a long day in SCEditorville. Train derailment in my neck of the woods led to about four hours of sleep.

What happened to Peyton Manning?

What happened to Peyton Manning?

He got traded to the Pirates for AJ Burnett ... Pirates are going to pay the bulk of Burnett's salary.

Considering all the stuff on their website, I'm pretty sure they had all the angles covered. Looked all over for the special section cover, but not a lot of places posting newspaper sports fronts these days. If anyone can find it, I'd love to see how they played it.

Wrong, wrong, wrong. He's leaving the Colts to fight Kony [/bluefont]

That's very likely an automated process that sends whatever's in the system as "A1" to Newseum. Guessing the special section front was coded otherwise.

 

[playthrough]

Isn't it a little weird to have absolutely no reference to Manning or the special section on A1?

Not if the special section wraps the front ...

 

[BDC99]

Not if the section wrapped around 1A.

Eight-page special section, paginated M1-M8. That might have fooled Newseum.

Most papers use an automated system to get their front to Newseum, so Newseum always gets A1/1A/1whateverthe****youcallit regardless of wrappers.

I'd still tease it on the front, if only a very small item in the rail. Can't fully explain it; just feels wrong to ignore it even if a wrap. If that's the rationale, why refer to anything off A1 if it's not really "A1"?

 

[Fran Curci]

You do need a reefer on 1A to tell people about the wrap, even though 1A is inside. For example, you pick up Section A at Starbucks and then you know there's a wraparound lying around that you can grab for free, too.

I can tell you from a really bad personal experience that if you're doing a wrap, you should ALWAYS have a refer to it on the "regular" 1A. Always. For a sports-related wrap, you should refer to it off the sports front too.

Burnett is going to pay for Manning's child's college tuition for No. 18.
