Below it is the masthead, which is the Star-Ledger type face, used for the print edition and a graphic of the paper. It includes links to the five main sections of the newspaper. Separate from the masthead are links to the coverage of the eight counties that are covered in its six zoned print editions. This allows readers quick access to any desired section. Headlines are links to articles and are easy to distinguish because of their blue type.
Readers can skim the leads before accessing the stories.
Unfortunately, to see all of the news, one must scroll down to the end of the page. Additional links at the bottom of the page provide access to the county news sections, subscription and contact information, the New Jersey school report card, personals and obituaries. Consistent layout of links or placing them elsewhere would be more beneficial. Unfortunately, there are no graphics used to illustrate stories. If appropriately used, graphics are beneficial in storytelling.
