What s black and white and red all over

What’s Black And White And Red All Over? Top Newspaper Circulation Numbers.

The Audit Bureau of Circulations has released the numbers for the top 25 daily newspapers in the U.S. based on their weekday circulation numbers. Not surprisingly, the numbers are bad — okay, awful. Exactly one of the top newspapers has shown growth when compared to where they were 6 months ago. That paper is The Wall Street Journal, which is now the number one paper in the country thanks to USA Today’s staggering loss of nearly 20% of its readership the past 6 months.

And it’s not like WSJ is growing like gangbusters, it grew 0.61% in the last six months.

Also a good list is the top 10 gainers in circulation, only because it looks like they could barely find 10 papers in the entire country with positive gains. Almost all of the ones on this list are smaller papers, with Women’s Wear Daily coming in as the number two gainer over the timeframe.

Below, find a chart of top 10 circulated paper’s “growth” over the past 6 months. Below that find the raw data for the Top 25 papers.

White and Red and Eerie All Over

Edit Locked

Whereas red and black is commonly used as a shorthand for evil or ’90s Anti-Hero edginess, white and red has a tendency to seem. rather off.

White is a sterile color generally agreed upon by many to be a «pure» one, and when introduced with a touch of vibrant red, it creates a very jarring contrast. But while this combination of colors can be elegant, in some circumstances, there can also be something unnervingly haunting about a white-and-red coloration. White is the color of bone and bloodless skin, and red the color of blood and bared flesh. Put them together and you get an unholy matrimony between Light Is Not Good and Red Is Violent; an appearance that is sickly, sterile, and ethereal, yet vibrant and visceral at the same time, like a pale corpse cut open to reveal its insides.

The sight of a «pure» color such as white being tainted with bloody red may be a key component in the eerie horror behind pale vampires who don’t bother to wipe their mouths, white suits and wedding dresses stained with blood, blood in the white snow, sinister white-haired folks with red eyes (see Albinos Are Freaks), the makeup of many a Monster Clown, the striped tent of a Circus of Fear, the sterile walls of a hospital or laboratory where the zombies or test subjects leave a path of mangled corpses in their wake, that red spot on the sheet you just woke up on, etc. In addition, white is associated with death in China and other Asian countries, so a Stringy-Haired Ghost Girl clad in blood-soaked robes can add to their inherent scariness.

See also Light Is Not Good and Red Is Violent. Contrast Light Is Good, Red Is Heroic, and Red-and-White Comedy Poster, the latter which is meant to be funny, not scary. Also contrast Green Means Natural for a color association used to indicate something being natural. Might turn up in Medical Horror as well, and is one of the reasons behind the assumption that Albinos Are Freaks—though in most albinistic humans in Real Life, the famous red eyes only show up under direct bright light (with blue being the most common color the rest of the time).

Compare Red and Black and Evil All Over, for a common interpretation of another particular color combination, and Grayscale of Evil for villains who eschew color altogether. For a healthy dose of Irony, contrast Cheery Pink; white and red being one of, if not the harshest color combination you can have means it’s quite funny that combining them gets you the color most associated with softness. See also Psycho Pink if the eeriness of white and red is mixed to make a subversion of the seemingly innocuous color.

Red and Black and Evil All Over

Edit Locked

Black and red. In western culture, these are the two most sinister colors, as red typically conveys the meaning of blood or anger, and black is that of darkness or death. Being a very visually striking combination, they can also convey a sense of power. Together, they can also give the impression of burning coal or wood, i.e. «fire and destruction». Sticking to these two colors is common for designers who want to create something as sinister as possible.

A favorite color for villainous characters to dress in (when they aren’t wearing purple, green, and orange). For example, most Ominous Opera Capes are a case of this: black on the outside, red on the inside (which is really common with vampires). It should be noted that this trope is not just a list of villains wearing black and red; it can apply to non-character elements as well. For example, this is common for the covers and credit sequences of horror books, films, and games, to show that a work is Darker and Edgier.

Historically, red and black (along with white) were heavily used in Nazi Germany’s symbols, so The Empire displaying these colors in its flags and architecture may give the impression of Putting on the Reich, even if the associated characters themselves don’t wear them. See Red and Black Totalitarianism.

Dark Is Not Evil can also apply with Anti Heroes and even Villain Protagonists heavily using a red and black color scheme as a visual reminder that these people, no matter how much we are supposed to identify with them, are not «good guys». Or that the concepts associated with this color scheme, such as darkness, blood, or fire, are not that evil to begin with. Can also be used to benefit from Evil Is Cool without resorting to actual evil. If a heroic character wears this, they may be an example of a Terror Hero, or of Good Is Not Nice at the bare minimum. It’s not uncommon for cases of this to be juxtaposed with a group of characters represented by blue and white. If the hero is represented by the colors blue and white, The Rival or an Evil Counterpart may have the black and red color scheme.

Compare Dark Is Evil, Grayscale of Evil, Red Eyes, Take Warning, Red Filter of Doom, and Obviously Evil, as well as Big Red Devil. Contrast Gold and White Are Divine, Heavenly Blue, Red Is Heroic, Movie Superheroes Wear Black, and Primary-Color Champion, where blue takes the place of black. Compare or Contrast Dark Is Not Evil and Red Is Violent for anti-hero/anti-villain examples, as well as Mysterious Purple for people with less defined and often obscured allegiances and moral leanings.

See also White and Red and Eerie All Over, which is portrayed as ghastly in addition to being sinister.

Note: In case of characters, this trope mostly applies to villains and anti-heroes.
