After
looking into the "New York Post" further, I am unsure whether or not
it qualifies as a legitimate publication to a majority of people. Based on this
front page and a few online posts, the paper seems to focus more on the
sensational. Indeed, the front page of today's paper appears to be a sort of
sarcastic joke that chooses an image of democratic candidates with their hands
raised in response to the headline. The headline and photo take up the entire
page, which appears to be the norm for this paper. There are barely any words
aside from the title, headline, and the caption. The caption uses slang I've
never even heard before, stating, "All major Dem candidates raise hand in
favor of free health care for illegal immigs". All these factors are
likely included to make the paper seem more sensational. Their tactic for
attracting viewers is like that of online clickbait.
