Creating a well-designed site that looks good, allows for good usability, and features a lot of content without cramming items onto the page is a very difficult task. News websites are designed to enhance the user experience of the reader. And most of the time, the news websites end up spamming the reader with annoying ad pop-ups. I think it is more subtle to show ads in the corner of the page rather than a separate dialogue box or window that pops up out of nowhere when the reader clicks on the link. Websites like Blog follow this method or corner ads and hence the reader is not annoyed by the ad windows.
Also, what is important is the fact that the newspaper should not have biased opinions on anything and provide completely unbiased opinion. now ofcourse this is very difficult to come across but well it is worth it at the end of the day.
You can also search on Google for more websites that provide exquisite design.
