7. THE SORDID MEDIEVAL NEWS
You have been hired as an editor and creator at “The Sordid Medieval News” media company. Your job is to impress the aristocracy with some sordid, sinful, and sensational news stories. You have gained this knowledge through the ballads you have heard from traveling Troubadours. In order to not be fired and “burned at the stake,” you must create a “perfect” front page that includes:
2 sensational stories from our ballads, including interviews and direct quotes, time of the interview, etc. must be at least 8-10 sentences each
2 pictures of the person being interviewed or other important photographed relic. **Color and neatness will be evaluated.
1 advertisement pertinent to the time w/ color
1 help wanted ad pertinent to the time w/ color
**You may not use pre-printed material. All must develop from your own creation!
