OUGD403 Brief 3 Newspaper Research Part 1

The Queens First Tweet 

The story:

" It is a pleasure to open the information age exhibition today
at the science museum and i hope people will enjoy visiting"

The tweet was typed out for her accordingly she then removed
her glove to send the tweet.

In all newspapers I collated the story covered was the tweet itself
alongside the fact she had then minutes later been subject to
the latest troll incident. I am going to base research on 'Trolling"

Here are some of the excerpts I collated…

The Sun
 

On the right image from the sun excerpt they have defaced the
queen and placed an iPhone in her hand with a speech bubble
this could be seen as humorous or in the other direction offensive,
This picture is also on the same page as a story on soft core porn
and in my opinion is extremely controversial placing but The sun
is well known for its controvesy.  Aesthetically suprisingly
it appears clean, fluid and organised although typical placing is
all over the place stories you would not expect to be together are.

Daily Express                                    Daily Mirror

       

Daily Mail                                     The Guardian

When comparing the stories together the overall tone varies from
every newspaper for example the sun is more jokey and light but
also uses much more explicit trolls as opposed to the use of the trolls
in Daily Mirror and Daily Mail as they have added light hearted
comments such as " Hey Liz, who are you loving on X Factor"
whereas in the sun the tweets are "Old **** hope you die"
"**** off and die" which are extremely offensive and aggressive
comments.
