✏️On 24th March The Sunday Morning suspended all physical delivery of their newspaper and switched to a completely #digital mode for disseminating their content What else?


📲On their '#SocialDistancing' edition tab-sized spaces were put between all names and white spaces were introduced between people in the pictures to symbolize social distancing
