It’s a tough task to capture U.S. President Donald Trump, and all that his inauguration represents.
There’s no one right way to do it either, if you judge by the front pages of newspapers around the world.
Newspapers took various approaches to covering the installation of America’s 45th president.
The New York Daily News made clever use of a pun.
So did the New York Post.
Come to think of it, the Post and the Daily News used the very same headline for their Friday editions.
And the U.K.’s Daily Mail used a similar headline in a tweet.
The Knoxville News Sentinel put Trump in his place… in history.
Danish newspaper Algemeen Dagblad took a satirical approach.
Scottish paper The National used striking visuals.
And carefully combined a photo with a headline.
The Daily Mail noted that Trump’s Scottish mother gave him the Bible his swore on when he was nine years old.
- Longtime Lumby mayor runs in municipal and provincial elections
- Indigenous groups given just 2 months to consult on Pacific Link pipeline designation
- BC NDP promises to lower gas costs while BC Conservatives embrace pipeline
- Ford government spent $2 million on McKinsey contract amid push for healthcare savings
The Daily Mirror left little doubt as to Trump’s priorities.
The Guardian did the same.
Some papers took simpler approaches.
