Fragrance diffusers above the fold, opinion columns below, and somewhere in between, actual journalism gasping for air. But here’s the kicker: it still works. The grid is surgical, the typography is crisp, and no matter the headline density, your eyes know where to go. And if they have their way, right to an advertiser’s website.
