‘Different newspapers address their audiences differently.’
How far is this true of The Times and the Daily Mirror (Close Study Products)?
This is undoubtedly true the way the Times and Daily Mirror address their audiences. This can be seen in their construction, selection and presentation of news and the political perspectives they address towards their audience.
In the Daily Mirror we can see lot of images and splash head , we also see very less writing.the Daily Mirror has a san serif text which could show us it is moving with the times and is trying to be more modern and it not very formal. we can See that in that they are a red top news paper which can see by there reader. On the other hand In The Times news paper we can see fewer images in the front cover and more heavy text .the Times has a serif fount shows us that it is more traditional and formal
Furthermore,we can also see a difference in the subject and the way that they write for example in The Daily Mirror we can see lots of soft news like entertainment, gossip, celebrity. This can be seen in the Bond stars picture story on the front page and the way size and presentation of the Royal Family story ,also in the left side we can see a wetherer report and some games that the reader can play on there way to work eg on the Consequently, in the Times they focus on hard news like politics, economics, international. like the story"Criminal enquiry story on front of Times - major politics story about a security leak at the top of government." which could be important to many worker from the middle of upper middle class .
They're both talking about the royal family in different way like
The Daily Mirrior uses there first names "Wills and Harry" which will normalise them to there target audience On the other hand The Times News paper are talking in a much formal way Refer to Royals using titles - Duke and Duchess
lastley we can see that The Times writes about private school in a positive way which would reflection on the reader because they are most likely to send their students to these private school. in The Daily Mirrior we can see one of the main story are "no mmr jab no school" and the slogon "we are fighting for you " show the deaddecation of the writer and most of ther people reading this newspaper send their kids to state schools
In conclusion, both newspapers address their audiences differently and that can be based on many different piont but the statement is true
we can see a difference in the layout and design in both news paper for examples:
