Heartland News Redesign

I just started working with a newspaper based in an impoverished area of my city (nearby where I used to live). Since there was virtually no thought put into the layout of the editorial, I decided to spruce it up a bit.

It's heartbreaking because gangs burnt down the building where all work was done, so I figured I'd help them out for free on the first issue. I've excluded photos / the logo because they are fairly ugly, going to have to talk to the client and see if they'd be willing to retweak them. Regardless of that, this is a definite step in the right direction.
