I found this story on The New York Times Web site. It is about suicides in India. Along with it, there were readers comments, a link to a biographical page about India, and a few pictures of people devastated by the loss of family members or friends. I like the reader’s comments and the link that lets the reader know more about India. The pictures used were vivid and showed a lot of emotion. These elements help to bring the story full circle and give the reader as much information as possible.
This story from The L.A. Times about the offshore drilling is another good new package. It has more different kinds of multimedia to go with it, including a map of drilling plan. It includes related stories from outside The L.A. Times, which gives readers the option to see what other news outlets are reporting.
This story found in The Dallas Morning News is not a good news package. The only visual aid it has is a picture of someone using an iPhone. It has links to related stories about Apple, but it also has links to stories about IBM. I don’t think those IBM stories belong there.
