What term refers to stories published below the fold in a newspaper?

• A. Breaking News
• B. Below the Fold
• C. Front Page
• D. Copy

Answer: (B)

In newspaper layout, the term refers to stories whose headlines and content appear below the fold—the lower portion of the page that isn’t visible when the paper is folded, or the material placed on inside pages. The fold is the crease that separates what’s immediately visible on the front when held open from what’s tucked inside. So stories that are published below the fold are the ones not immediately visible on the front page and are read after flipping to inside pages or by scrolling to see the continuation. The other options describe when news happens (breaking news), which page is shown (front page), or the text itself (copy), rather than where the story appears on the page.
