The Contrast Between the Daily Mail and the Independent
Newspapers need to aim at a specific corner of the market to be
successful. The main reason for this is that if you have a readership
consisting of a specific class or type of people eg. Middle class
business men. Then advertisers who want to appeal to that specific
audience will use that paper for their advert and the paper can obtain
large profits from adverts and the advertisers can sell lots of
products. Therefore the paper needs to know the readers status so it
can tell the advertisers what kind of people they could reach by
advertising with them. Whereas the Mail doesn't put adverts on the
front page (as there is limited space), the Independent being a
broadsheet newspaper has more space to be able to show one or two
adverts as well the copy.
The mastheads for the two papers are totally different. The names
Daily Mail and Independent have significant meaning that gives an
outline of what the paper is about. The name 'Daily mail' is supposed
to give a sense of regularity and reliability as it is 'Daily' and it
regular like the post. The name 'Independent' relates that the paper
will present a balanced report and leave you to make your own personal
conclusion. The Mail uses a gothic type font; this is to make the
paper look well-established and authoritative. The Independent uses a
bold but elongated writing to imply an authoritative but more modern
and stylish look. This is hoped to convey an up-to-date feeling that
makes the paper seem the right choice for current news and issues.
The Mail uses no motto but in-between Daily and Mail is the Royal
Crest of Arms which...
... middle of paper ...
...tching and dramatic. The Independent uses a picture of
Clair Short, the cabinet member who has been opposing Blair, walking
out of her London office with a smirk on her face.
The layout the two papers are very different also as they both have
different views over which feature of the front page deserves the most
space. The Mail on one hand feels that both the Headline and the Photo
deserve about a third of the page whereas the copy, strap lines and
masthead are left to share the final third. Whereas the on the
Independent's front page the copy is seen to be much more important
and about a half is given over to this, they use a small photo and
headline, the opposite of the Mail front page as they are attracting
different minded groups of people. Therefore it proves the need for a
paper to specify its readership class.
Joseph Turow’s The Daily You shows us the in depth look of behind the scenes of the advertising industry and its impact on individuals in the consumer society we live in. Every time you click a link, fill out a form or visit a website, advertisers are working to collect personal information about you, says Joseph Turow, a professor at the Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania. Then they target ads to you based on that information they collected. This tracking is ubiquitous across the Internet, from search engines to online retailers and even greeting card companies.

In the documentary film, Page One: Inside The New York Times, the inner world of journalism is revealed through journalists David Carr and Brian Stelter as the newspaper company The New York Times, struggles to keep alive within a new wave of news journalism. The film is dedicated to reveal the true inner mechanics of what modern day new journalists face on a daily basis and leaves the audience almost in a state of shock. It broadcasts news journalism as yes, an old school method of news generation, but it also highlights an important component that reveals the importance behind this “old school” methodology. We often think that progression always correlates with positive products, but the documentary insists that within the case of modern journalism, the new wave method is actually a detriment that can reap negative consequences.

Interviewee: It seems that the majority of the stories in tabloids are sad at the beginning however they always tend to turn happy towards the end. Like it could be "I was kidnaped by an alien but they eventually returned me back home with special powers!".
6. (CC) Since Madame Loisel is the protagonist; I would say the necklace itself is the antagonist. As you can tell from the title of this short story, the necklace is the center of the conflict that is created to the Loisels. It is after Madame loses the necklace that all the trouble begins. Also, the necklace causes them misery and they end up being in debt. Madame and her husband had to work harder than they ever before to pay off the
Taken at face value, Norman Mailer’s Armies of the Night and Tom Wolfe’s The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test may seem very similar. They are both centered on a major author of the 1960s and his experiencing of historical events of the time, while set in the style of New Journalism. When examined closer, though, it becomes apparent that these novels represent two very different sides of New Journalism – Armies of the Night an autobiography with personal and political motivations, The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test a sociological piece which tries to capture the essence of its subjects rather than the absolute facts. By looking at the form and style which the novels were written in and the motives behind Mailer’s Armies of the Night and Wolfe’s The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test it is revealed how these novels represent the two major directions which New Journalism can take.
The Guardian vs. The Mirror I am doing an investigation into the statistical differences between the daily tabloid newspapers, and the weekly broadsheet newspapers. My overall hypothesis is that the daily tabloid papers - here represented by the Saturday edition of The Mirror, a daily tabloid - make an easier read than the more comprehensive broadsheet - here represented by the Guardian, a weekly broadsheet - To reach a conclusion, I plan to test three hypothesise in specific area. I will use a range of sampling methods, and presentation of data, in order to form valid conclusions. Planning 1 - My hypothesis is that the number of letters per word will be greater in the Guardian than in the Mirror. Number of letters - I will count the number of letters in every fourth word.
Many do not consider where images they see daily come from. A person can see thousands of different designs in their daily lives; these designs vary on where they are placed. A design on a shirt, an image on a billboard, or even the cover of a magazine all share something in common with one another. These items all had once been on the computer screen or on a piece of paper, designed by an artist known as a graphic designer. Graphic design is a steadily growing occupation in this day as the media has a need for original and creative designs on things like packaging or the covers of magazines. This occupation has grown over the years but still shares the basic components it once started with. Despite these tremendous amounts of growth,

Comparing two newspaper articles, one from a tabloid and one from a broadsheet will convey the different techniques that tabloids and broadsheets use to present stories. Media in general, aim to inform and interest the audience which consist of many different types. Diverse emotions and ideas are created by the media; foremost tabloids. Tabloids are papers like ‘The Sun’, ‘The Mirror’, ‘The Daily Mail’, ‘The Express’ and ‘The Star’. In contrast to these are broadsheets like ‘The Times’, ‘The Guardian’ and ‘The Daily Telegraph’. Broadsheets are often known as the ‘quality press’ being more informing and formal in the manner they convey information and news stories.
It is well known that the British political system is one of the oldest political systems in the world. Obviously, it was formed within the time. The United Kingdom of the Great Britain and Northern Ireland is the constitutional monarchy, providing stability, continuity and national focus. The monarch is the head of state, but only Parliament has the right to create and undertake the legislation. The basis of the United Kingdom’s political system is a parliamentary democracy. Therefore, people think the role of the Queen as worthless and mainly unnecessarily demanding for funding, but is it like that?
