SKEWED PAGES

"Skewed Pages" is a publication that explores and addresses the framing theory in headlines and to understand the effects of framing and its' importance.

Skewed Pages represents the distorted and imbalanced information we see on the daily as they are all being filtered through their individual media frames. To be able to receive the most objective information, one has to read from both sides of a story, and eventually receive the most objective truth.

The main chapter, "Skewed Headlines", explores how different headlines by news outlets can sway or influence the reader's perspectives through the use of specific words and phrasings through documenting and comparing headlines of the same stories by different news outlets.
