Brief Explanation

As one of the region’s oldest news sources in the Middle East, Khaleej Times needed to stay relevant. So we teamed up with four newspaper staffers to create a banner that automatically creates headlines... inspired by the fortune-cookie wisdom and dubious advice shared on social media everyday. Share any image, and the Opinionated Banner responds back in seconds – with an opinion you'd definitely find on social media, but NEVER read on the pages of Khaleej Times. The banner with an opinion on everything makes one point abundantly clear - an EDUCATED opinion is based on FACT.
