USA Today’s “State-by-State” page, which provides news briefs from across the United States, is formatted. That formatting is as follows:
STATE City: Paragraph with information about aforementioned city.
In other words, the state name is in a sans serif typeface, in all caps and in blue; the city name and the colon are in a serif typeface and in bold; and the paragraph is in the same serif typeface as the city name but uses the regular, or roman, font. Here is an example of what a “State-by-State” entry might look like in USA Today:

Cocoa’s nuts!
