16+

Yes, the articles about gangs and TOWIE are ones I ones I would read about.

I don't like Keith Lemmon, this is off putting.

Name: Katie Wyman Age: 18
1. By glancing at the front cover, would you read this local newspaper?
Potentially, I do not regularly read papers, but this catches my eye.
2. Who do you think its aimed at?
A specific neighbourhood or area. Also remind me of papers specific to a small town.
3. Do you think young people would read it?
No, I would imagine them reading something inline, or possible following the twitter.
4. What don’t you like about it?
I have no real interest about the HA6 area, I think the advertisements could have been better resolution. The title font does not appeal to me but that doesn't mean its a ad font, the articles look compressed.
5. What do you like about it?
The photos chosen are clear and attention grabbing, advertisements seem appropriate. I especially like the links to twitter and the app (how images are at an angle). Headlines are clear and to the point.
6. Do you think it’s a reasonable price?
It seems reasonable, but I cant say I would pay the price, depends how thick the paper is (and would news become old after a month?)
7. Do you think it looks professional?
Yes, it reminds me of papers I have seen in passing.
8. What changes would you make?
Use one font type the whole way through )and colour variation to gain attention), page numbers, thin article collumns, higher resolution for adverts.

Overall I am happy and satisfied with my feedback, it is clear that my problem is the masthead font and text font which did not appeal to everyone. I think I could experiment more and look at other fonts I could use which would perhaps appeal more towards my target audience. Everyone seems to think the newspaper looks professional and it would appeal to them which I am very happy about.
