@apetty1997 @DrSturg This is very true. Online headlines need to entice readers because it's often the only part of the story people look at. #SturgChat
@DrSturg A5: Print headlines work with the design of the page and summarize the story. Online headlines are clear and concise and have the most important keywords at the start of the headline because reporters are writing for search engines and readers. #SturgChat
@mdcgonzalez18@DrSturg Getting people's titles and names right is very important because if journalists don't, they could burn a source but also mislead the public. #SturgChat
@DrSturg A4: They should verify information they find online and from their sources. They should throughly check every fact in their stories to ensure they are contributing to society's education. In this political climate, fact checking is necessary. #SturgChat

@mhenderson910@DrSturg This is very true. Credibility is essential for journalists because without it, people will no longer read our stories, which leads to an uneducated society. #SturgChat
@DrSturg A3: Accuracy is more important than immediacy. If reporters tweet something incorrectly, they will confuse the public and shatter people's trust in the news. Here is an example of Trump criticizing a reporter for making a mistake in a tweet. #SturgChat

@eliaschristina4 @DrSturg Good point! Webpages should be similar to print newspapers in terms of readability and having a clean structure, but they should also be interactive and more visual. #SturgChat
@DrSturg A2: Designers should use white space to prevent cluttering information. They should also choose legible typefaces and type sizes and use consistent typefaces when they want to emphasize similarity. They should use leading lines to highlight the most important elements #SturgChat
@micaelasoucy @DrSturg I definitely agree with this. Reporters should use keywords that pertain to the content of the article but that also capture the words people use when they type in search engines. #SturgChat
@DrSturg A1: Since many people share stories online, reporters should write headlines that stand out, grab people's attention and propel readers to click on and read the stories. #SturgChat
