Media Coursework
Compare and contrast the features of a tabloid and broadsheet newspaper.
Consider the role the media plays in our society.
The media in general plays a huge part in our society by using forms of TV, radio and in adverts in papers, even adverts on the side of a bus. This is to get our attention to make us buy or watch what they are putting out, to make people excited of what they are selling, by making them like that thing by using forms of TV and radio saying psychologically 'if your cool then you have to get this'.
In tabloid newspapers they don't have many intelligent words because the audience they go for are people who are not well educated, tabloids talk about things like sports, fashion, celebrity gossip and the latest music, however broadsheet newspapers go for more knowledgeable people, people that are lawyers and bankers, so they use more intelligent words and talk about political issues, things intellectual people would understand and would like to read.
