5/5/10 - 5 Great Newspaper Designs
Most of the Mexican newspapers I saw were extremely colorful. It is definitely eye-catching. Many papers like this one were heavy on the info above-the-fold (e.g. the baby on this, probably eating lead paint, has nothing to do with the main headline). I like that each story has a picture and a lead in to make you open the paper. 
The previous paper, this one is very heavy at the top. I think that if they would've brought some more of that imagery down, it would be better. The bottom half is very text heavy, but the top pieced-pictures are brilliant.
I really like the colored boxes and text for the different stories. As a reader, it makes it easy to move from one story to the next. Each image is striking, and it appears that the designer took time to pick the best pic for each slot.
Why do I like this seemingly typical paper? It is because I like the traditional newspaper look. However, the large graphics keep me interested, and I'm going to bet that I would read every cutline under the pics. It's clean and simple, like a news story should read.
I love the colors! I'm assuming, since I can't read it, that each color pairs with a certain section. I would love to see if the headers match those sections on the inside, as well. The colored boxes help to separate stories and images.
