US officials visit man jailed in North Korea

News source


http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-pacific-10992369



BBC has its own style of website design with red and dark red as the background main colours and white to category different columns and titles.

This news title was comprised by eight words that clearly depict the main idea of the whole story, using dark grey to emphasis and to make a distinction between the news story and the title. Following the title is a summary of the event coloured by dark but much smaller font size which can be apprehended in a glance of who involved in this event, what, when, where and how did it happened.



In the right side of the article, also the middle of the whole website is a close shot of photo of the protagonist, an US man jailed in North Korea which we known from the description under the photo.



At the beginning of the article we get a general idea of the background of this man and the reason of his being put into jail. Then there is a brief introduction of this news story—the grant of permission from the North Korea bought forward by US, illustrated by a series of interview of the US state department spokesman. We can also know from the story other additional information such as how the US consular office are dealing with the application of releasing Aijalon Mahli Gomes and the unfathomable enigma of his suicide in chrismas.



This is a well-described news because it tells the whole story very apparently, however it left like no ending story for it didn’t unclose questions in the news, and no analysis can be found in the news which makes this news lack of something profound. Even answers guessed from experts will enrich the article.
