Social Media

Modeled after The Washington Post and other national media outlets, these in-depth posts tell an important, attention-grabbing fragment of a larger story.

I’ve made dozens of these posts as Sports Editor to Editor-in-Chief, refining my design and process throughout.

We didn’t do many political posts until I came on staff, but I’ve worked to localize national issues and report on local issues, too.

Event coverage posts should do three things – capture attention, capture the spirit of the event, and create visual intrigue.

In my experience, Instagram reels can be used for just about anything. For me, they’re usually a way to capture attention more viscerally.

Breaking news is the core of social media – when people have a burning question, they go to the platform for answers. My breaking news attempts to answer those questions.
