Page Layout
The HuffPost article includes only three subheadings, which are insufficient for easy scanning. More subheadings are recommended, especially in the final section — for example: Trump’s Interpretation of “Jurisdiction”, Widely Accepted Interpretation, and Historical Case. The article is also cluttered with ads, undermining both user experience and credibility. Six ads interrupt the text on desktop, and four on mobile. A 30-second ad plays before/during the Trump video. These placements should be relocated and replaced with white space or relevant multimedia.
Multimediality
The article consists mainly of text with only one video. Adding images of Trump, Ark (from the case mentioned), or the diversity of U.S. citizens would provide visual breaks and make the page more engaging. Including audio would also benefit 5G users as an alternative to video content.
Interactivity
The article allows sharing via email and Facebook, tipping, and corrections, and it has over 1,000 comments. Including selective interactions like opinion polls would encourage engagement from passive readers, which help gather audience insight to guide future contents.
Audience Adaptation
Use simpler words (e.g., replace “unequivocal”, “small feat”), spell out terms like CAC (Constitutional Accountability Center), and shorten paragraphs. HuffPost’s audience may prefer a clearer, briefer, and more accessible style.
