European papers make the same choices too, sometimes

But it’s not just here, you know. It can happen anywhere. Even to Spanish papers that are held up as wonderful examples of design:

We’re not quite sure why this particular photo “captured the imagination of Spanish newspapers,” as Innovation’s Juan Antonio Giner put it. Perhaps one of our Spanish friends can clue us in.

    Charles,

    Clonic journalism is everywhere.

    And the lack of imagination too.

    So, Spanish newspapers are not different.

    And today, fort sure, less than ever.
