Comparing Tabloid and Broadsheet Coverage of An Event.
On Thursday 21st of September 2000, there were two big explosions in the MI6 building. I have chosen one tabloid 'The Mirror' and one broadsheet 'The Independent'.
The headline in the tabloid is big and bold, so it made me think that it was an interesting story because it caught my attention. The headline in the broadsheet goes across the whole page but it isn't as big as the tabloid's. The headline on the broadsheet is eye catching because it says 'MI6 building rocked by explosions'. The use of the word 'rocked' is very effective on readers because it makes the story sound interesting because it means that the explosion shook the building.
