On our sixth birthday, today’s news told visually



Today The National celebrates its sixth birthday.

Since we first appeared on April 17, 2008, there have been momentous events in this country, the region and the world – and we have brought them all to you in words and pictures.

Today we do it differently: we use only photos, graphics, illustrations and headlines to capture the news in a one-off collector’s edition.

— If you can't get a hard copy, then the epaper can be found here. It's worth it.

— Words of course, accompany the images on our website.

— We have QR codes on the top of each page. You can use a QR app on your mobile to scan the code. A how to video is here.

— Don't forget to subscribe, we still have our The Entertainer offer going!

Thanks, from The National staff
