The New York Post front page presents a sensational headline with a play on words ('RUDY MUGGED') alongside an image of Rudy Giuliani. The headline is a reference to legal troubles, using the term 'mugged' metaphorically to suggest he has been targeted or treated harshly. The image of Giuliani appears to be chosen to emphasize a sense of distress or concern, which is typical of tabloid-style journalism.
