Answer:
similarities in which two different newspapers - a tabloid (The
Mirror) and a broadsheet (The Times) report the same story. I will be
looking at the presentation and the use of language as well as the
basics of how the story is put forward and told. Both papers are
reporting the same story in which Prince Philip made a statement along
the lines that 'guns are no more dangerous than cricket bats'
following a shooting at a school in Dunblane in Scotland. In general
there are many differences between tabloids and broadsheets. A tabloid
is smaller than a broadsheet, usually being about half the size and so
is easier to handle. Tabloids tend to be more gossip based, informing
more on celebrities, scandals and entertaining the reader whereas a
broadsheet focuses on more serious issues such as politics, business
and informing the reader.
Both papers feature several presentation techniques, but how they are used differ greatly. For example, the masthead in The Mirror is very bold and simple whereas The Times' is more formal yet ornate, posh and
traditional. The style of these masthead contrasts with the style of
the paper itself, The Mirror in it's choice of reported articles and the way in which they are produced is very simple and 'to the point' whereas The Times' articles are usually far more informative with less colloquial language and humour. The Mirror's headline is very large and bold, this attracts the readers attention as well as making the page seem less intimidating as there is far less to actually read. The Times' on the middle of paper ally have a lower reading stamina (reading stamina is the average length of reading someone can do before loosing attention). Thus these papers are easier to read as they have less text, more pictures and simpler language. The readership of a broadsheet such as The Times
tends to be those with a high reading stamina who demand in-depth reporting. An example of these people include those with more time,
for example when travelling such as businessmen, lawyers and teachers.
These papers have far more text and less pictures and are often linked to education.
The Mirror and The Times both tell the same story in very different
ways as I have explained in this essay. It is a fact that The Mirror
