I was just going back through these tonight and admiring everyone’s work. Salt Lake was definitely my favorite of the day too. That paper stood out the most among the masses on the Newseum. There’s a lot of good insight here, Charles … especially concerning clean typography and well-written headlines. Thanks for sharing.

Congratulations Josha and Colin. My favorite page of the day. Courageous, beautiful, elegant. Loved the Oregonian and the Des Moines Register, too.

Hi Charles,

Fascinating to see how everyone approached the inauguration. Such great material to work with.
We’re a classic broadsheet, one of the last of a dying breed in that sense.
We gave Obama 12 cleanskins in a separate A section and, using our full-colour press to best advantage, were able to run the Obama family/oath taking shot across the opening spread. Using the centre as a panorama, we played the picturees really big - some of the biggest images we’ve ever run. I’ll email you some of the treatments.
